Lou Gehrig in Yankee Stadium🏟⚾️1932.

"He was a free-swinging, dirty-uniform kind of guy, and he was always smiling. It made *you* smile just to look at him." - novelist Michael Chabon on Pirates catcher Manny Sanguillén. . . . . . . #BeautyOfaGame #MannySamguillén #Pirates #Pittsburgh #PittsburghPirates #VintageBaseball #Baseball https://www.instagram.com/p/BrZ6pSEAs_e/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i21rkxard0l5

Miami University Indoor Baseball team circa 1905. As far as I can work out with a bit of googling is that indoor baseball was established to be able to play baseball in the winter months and it eventually evolved into the game of Softball. Anyone know more of that history? Is that the gist of it? Anyway, these guys look like a stout team.
