BASEBALL LEGEND | ‣

Who invented baseball

Baseball’s official historian, John Thorn, sets the record straight on the game’s earliest days ... in the 1700s. Yes, that’s right, baseball started decades before Abner Doubleday supposedly created the game at Cooperstown — and it only became popular when professional gamblers took an interest. — www.npr.org

The ’Secret History’ Of Baseball’s Earliest Days by NPR interviews Official Baseball historian John Thorn as he reveals that the April 2, 1907 decision of the Mills Commission to Christin Abner Doubleday as the founding father of baseball was flat-out wrong.
