The Historical Society of Princeton will host an annual Vintage Baseball event on June 27. The event will begin at noon and will take place at Princeton High School junior varsity baseball field, next to 25 Valley Road in Princeton.
Part game, part show, part history lesson, the Flemingston Neshanock and the Bog Iron Boys will play a competitive match of bare-handed baseball, wearing period uniforms and using rules from 1864.
The event will also include a short lesson on the history of the game and a recitation of “Casey at the Bat.” At the conclusion of the game, spectators will have the opportunity to take batting practice, using the replica equipment.
Admission to the event is free and open to the public.
For more information, call (609) 921 – 6748 ext. 102.
