Take me out to the ball game…

Baseball has a rich history in the Pacific Northwest. Spokane Falls vs. Seattle was the first professional baseball game played in Seattle on May 24, 1890. You can read about it here. You can also see the slide show Play Ball! A Slide Show of the History of Early Baseball in Washington.

You can find more information about the history of baseball in Spokane in the Northwest Room.
