It was originated in 1845. The first real baseball game played was in Hoboken, N. J.. on June 19, 1846, be- tween the Knickerbockers and anoth. er club, known as the \New York Nine.\ The latter was victorious, the score being 21 to 1 in its favor, the game lasting only four innings. The rules for that first game, made in 1845, and for all games up to 1857, provided that victory should go to the team first scoring 21 runs, irres- pective of innings played. \Among the rules laid down by the Knickerbockers of 1845 which have endured through all the succeeding seventy-one years are these: (1) A ball knocked outside the boundary lines of first and third base shall be considered a foul. (2) If three balls are struck at and missed .the last being caught, it is a handout (strikeout): if not caught, it is considered fair and the striker is privileged to run to the base. (3) A running player who prevents; an adversary from catching or get-, ting the ball before making the base is a handout (out). (4) Three hands out, side out. (5) If two men are out the scoring of a player on a hit on which the bat. ter is put out before reaching first base does not count. (86) Players must bat in regular turn. \The next recognized contest was not played until five years later when the Knickerbockers accepted the' challenge of a team composed | of, New York men who called their club; the 'Washingtons,' and the Knicker bockers introduced uniforms in that game, which was played in Hoboken. June 3, 1851. The reason given for the use of the uniforms was that the Knickerbockers had found in their game five years ago that trousers im- peded their movements and that the | wearing of linen shirts was a handi-} cap. \The Knickerbockers won that; second \big league\ game, 21 to 11 in , eight innings. Two weeks later the} same teams-Knickerbockers and . Washingtons--played a ten-inning | contest in Hoboken, the Knickerbock- ers wining out 22 to 20. \The Washingtons, immediately af-; ter this second defeat, changed their | name to the Gothams, and the follow-i Ing year issued another challenge to the Knickerbockers. It was accepted | and the game was played in New:! York on June 27, 1852. It went six- | teen innings before the Gothams| scored their 21 to 16 victory. O \A& year later-on July 5. 1833 to be' exact-the Knirkerbockers competed again, the Knickerbockers achieving a victory of 21 to 12.
