Today's baseball field is Doubleday Field in Cooperstown, NY. This is the home of baseball. It is said that Civil War General Abner Doubleday invented baseball here in Cooperstown but they have since found earlier references to the game. It doesn't matter though, because Cooperstown is the Home of Baseball. Doubleday Field is where the annual Hall-of-Fame game is played, this year it was the Orioles vs. the Blue Jays. Of course, this game doesn't count and you could see more triple A guys playing than big leaguers but it is for the fun of the game. The day I visited it was just an Old-Timers Fantasy game, but it was still baseball. Play Ball!
