BASEball!

Dodgers fans, October 10, 1955.
A couple of Dogers fans!
October 10,1955



"The story of baseball is the story of America!" It Sets and Breaks new Records by many.The baseball capitol is of course New York City! Home of the team that had always played in the World series.. and pretty much won all of their game,If they didnt win you know they were super close! Of course this league didnt just start with "white" people it started off with African Americans! Legends that made somthing of them selves was Willie Mays,Monte Irvin,Roy Campanella,Frank Robinson ,Ernie Banks and of course Henry Aaron they all followed Jackie Robinson into the " Majors!
The "Brooklyn Dodgers" won their first World series with the help of Jackie Robinson and Roy Campanella!
National Pastime
The baseball season hit off in the year 1941... Joe DiMaggio hit in 56 straight Games ,which is the longest hitting streak before Ted williams.
Somethings you prolly didnt know!
In 1879, all Pitches were to be called "strikes,Balls or fouls."
In 1888, if you got stoke out , it was made at the 3rd strike
In the 1930's If a ball went to the outfield fence it was considerd a Homerun!
In 1846 the first recorded argument between a player and an umpire!
Ever since the year 1941 Baseball has been a loved Sport world wide!
Dedicated to my brother:Taylor
