Hey guys,

As some of you may or may not know next summer is the 150th
anniversary of the first New York style baseball game played in New
England.  The game was held in 1858 on the Boston Common and pitted
the Tri Mountains of Boston against a club from Portland Maine.  I
was thinking that it might be a nice idea to try to have a tournament
next summer in Boston to celebrate this event.  I recently contacted
the Bostonian Society and they seem lukewarm on the idea because they
really don't understand what their part would be in putting this
together.  Right now it's a concept that I have that would need to be
mapped out before I think they would sign off on it.

In saying that… Does anyone have any interest in helping me put all
of this together?  If we can get this process moving now I think we
could have a very successful event next summer.

Let me know,
Brian
(PS- Sorry if you get this twice)

Hey guys,

I don't know if all of you got this but this is the web site Blue from
the Game Hens put together for all of the teams in NE.
http://newenglandvintagebaseball.com

  I think that this is a very good step in the right direction for what
we do.  Everyone should send him a thank you...

Hello all,
    I read the article today in the New London Day regarding the
upcoming 2007 vintage baseball season. I am new to a vintage baseball
league but look forward to learning more at the meeting. sounds like
alot of fun!!

Hey everyone,

I am looking to put together some games for Trails and Sails weekend,
an event that happens in Essex County, and am looking for some teams.
I thought the weekend was September 22nd and 23rd (and I have games
scheduled for that time) but it turns out to be the following weekend
of the 29th and 30th.  Here is a link that explains what the weekend is
all about http://www.essexheritage.org/ts/#

Are there any teams interested in doing something for this weekend? I
know it is late in the season and guys start thinking about football.
It would have to depend on the response for what set of rules (I would
be open for one day of 1861 and the other 1886) or what day (one day or
two days).  Let me know if there is any interest out there.

Hey guys,

Here is a link to a Maine PBS clip about Louis Sockalexis (it's the
third segments down) http://www.mpbc.org/maineexperience/segments.html
In the clip there is some footage of some New England vintage ballists.

Thought it might interest some of you.

That supports the head first diving in the 1860s for sure. Good citation.

Hey everyone,

I dont want to start a huge discussion on this but I found this
email when I was going through one of my folders. It is very
interesting, I actually requested the book...

Brian

Happened to come across this recently from "Old Boston Boys and the
Games They Played" James D'Wolf Lovett, 1908, p. 153.

"Mr. Chandler [Moses E Chandler of the Tri-Mountains] also had the
distinction of being the first ball player in New England who, when
running the bases, made a "dive" for one of them. This happened in
1859
in Portland, Maine, in a match between the Tri-Mountains and
Portlands,
and the feat fairly astonished the natives, who at first roared with
laughter, but Chandler scored the run [last 5 words in italics], and
they then woke up to the fact that a large, new and
valuable "wrinkle"
had been handed out to them."

Hey Tony,

 

I wish I had more computer skills and was able to upload some of the video clips we have onto the computer but I am just not that talented. I have asked a guy on our team to try but the DVD I gave him has been sitting at his house for a year now, I should see if the kids at school know how to do it...... Most of the stuff on the web is of 1886 rules. On the Newtown Sandy Hooks site there is a link to a trailer of a documentary MLB is putting together on vintage base ball. I would suggest also looking at 19cbb web site http://www.19cbaseball.com/legacy2.html . There are a few clips from Old Bethpage playing.

 

Hooking up with a historical society can be very helpful if they are willing to help.... Sometimes they are sometimes they arent.

 

As far as the NEVBBL goes there really isnt a league right now, there is a semblance of a league but not really and it only includes 6 or 7 teams. As a whole I think most of the teams in NE (close to 20) are looking to form an association which would be very loose and basically be a way to help educate, promote, and foster vintage base ball in NE. Whatever we form would not keep standings or force teams to play X amount of games, etc, etc.

Hey everyone,

I know several of you have sent me emails asking about the meeting
and I apologize for not getting this out sooner but I was writing
papers and starting a new position at school.  I now have all kinds
of time so I will hopefully paint a picture of what happened, what
could happen, and then hopefully we can start planning.

First off there were only a handful of teams at the meeting and I
would like to thank the Melrose Pondfielders, Waterbury Connors,
Mudville BBC, and the Cornish Game Hens for making the trip.  A few
scheduling things were done and we talked about a few tournaments. (I
will be attaching Essex/ Lynn's/ and our new Boston teams schedules
and am looking to fill a few things…) Beyond the scheduling the only
talk about an association came from Blue Reilly of the Game Hens.  I
hope he will post on what his plans are because I don't want to get
it wrong but from what we talked about he bought a web site for New
England Vintage Base Ball (he knows the address).  What he sees and
what I originally envisioned for this association is something where
all teams in NE can come together and this web site sounds like it
could accomplish that.  Rules can be posted, teams can link their web
sites, schedules and directions to games can be posted, and documents
can be created to help new teams. ( I have a whole PowerPoint
presentation on useful techniques in running and promoting a team).
Essentially we would be creating a web site similar to the VBBA.  New
teams, fans, or anyone else interested can go to this web site get
schedules, find out what other teams are in their area, and basically
find out more about vintage base ball in NE.  The final piece of
Blue's plan was to sell tee shirts on the site…… He will have to fill
you in on that.   I think that a simple web site is a great start.
From there we can grow and expand into a more formal thing or we can
simply keep this very loose network.  With all the new teams
springing up I just think that it is important to have something that
helps them and makes them aware of any teams in their area…..

I hope that summarizes the meeting and what I see without writing
another 5 page paper.  I hope this also stimulates a little
discussion.

Have a good holiday,

Dan:

Thanks for writing.  I like your club's website.  I'll definitely
have a bunch of questions about that.  I'm waiting to hear back from
the Berlin Citizen Newspaper.  I emailed the editor about doing a
story on this topic and the team I want to form.  I planned on
putting an ad in the paper but thought a story in the local paper
might generate more publicity.

How long did it take you to get the ball rolling on forming the
Westfield team?  Was it a long process?

Brian,

The July 14 date in Westfield has Essex, Hartford and Waterbury
involved along with 3 other, non NEVBL teams. You can certainly
arrange to "make-up" games on that date.

All:

The Bristol Blues are IN the league.  We do not intend to visit Waterbury as
that weekend is already surrounded by significant travel dates for us.  Sorry
Jim W.

We intend to play in Haverhill.

Thanks,
John

		 Can we get a yes or no from all the teams as to whether or not they will be
attending all of these events. If we get that then A. we can try to figure out
how teams not attending can play teams close to them or at another time. ex.
Essex does not really need to play Lynn at these tournaments and Lynn does not
need to play Melrose. Essex would need to play Hartford and New London more than
likely... B. we can find a replacements so that everyone plays at least 2 games.

		 Essex and Lynn will attend all three tournaments.

Subject: RE: [nevbbl] the league

Can we get a yes or no from all the teams as to whether or not they will be attending all of these events. If we get that then A. we can try to figure out how teams not attending can play teams close to them or at another time. ex. Essex does not really need to play Lynn at these tournaments and Lynn does not need to play Melrose. Essex would need to play Hartford and New London more than likely... B. we can find a replacements so that everyone plays at least 2 games.

 

Essex and Lynn will attend all three tournaments.

Subject: [nevbbl] the league

Hey guys,

I found myself with a few free minutes before my class tonight so I
wanted to drop everyone a quick email summary of what we came up with
on Sat. The meeting was ok- Im not going to say a lot was
accomplished when half the league was not there, but was nice to sit
around and have a few beers and schedule a few things.

This is what we came up with- three tournaments.
June 3rd in Bristol
July 15th in Waterbury
And either August 18th or 19th in Haverhill, MA

Structure
Each team plays everyone once and the best record wins the bat. If
teams elect to not come to a tournament then they just have to find a
time to play the teams they do not play. Teams like Essex probably
would not have to play Lynn or Melrose at these tournaments so that
may make it easier if teams cant make it.

Schedule… I will be sending out Essex/ Lynn's schedule. I am still
looking for a few round robins so let me know if teams are interested.

I had better get ready for class… More to come soon.

Brian
