Take Me Out to the Ball Game

Old Fashioned Baseball Game at Fort Vancouver.

The Vancouver Occidentals are Vancouver’s original baseball team, and they are ready to play some ball! It’s baseball, 1860’s style, and you can “catch” it on Saturday, July 21, 2012. Game time begins at 6 pm and lasts about 2 hours.

You will think you stepped back in time at this Vintage Baseball Game played at Fort Vancouver. Not only are the players in costume, even the fans get into character. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, and even the band, dressed in 1860’s attire.

This gloveless game with wooden bats is played by very different rules. “Striker to the line”, means the batter is up. He takes a couple of practice swings and then shows the hurler (pitcher) where he would like the ball. The ball is pitched underhand and it is the job of the hurler to get the ball into play. There are no strikes, no balls and a batter can only “strike out” if he swings and misses at three pitches. Also a ball caught after the first bounce is also considered an out. It was a real gentleman’s game played just for fun.
