Play the 1860s way! The 3rd Annual Farmers Branch Vintage Base Ball Tournament will be held on October 10, 2009 on the grounds of the Farmers Branch Historical Park. Participants in this tournament, hosted by the City of Farmers Branch, will demonstrate the fine sport of base ball as it was originally played. Clubs from around the state including the Boerne Whitesox and the George Ranch Giants will compete in this exhibition of base ball played by 1860s rules. Come out and watch as Lefty, Pitch, Chuckwagon, Muggsy, Wheels, and Yard Dog, to name a few, attempt to “show a little ginger” to score an “ace.” Huzzah!
