A Game Like No Other
Experience baseball the way it was originally played, as the Cincinnati Buckeyes take on the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings in a historically accurate matchup. This isn’t your average baseball game; it’s an immersive living history event. Players take the field in authentic uniforms, swing wooden bats, and catch barehanded (that’s right — no gloves!). They adhere to the customs, rules, and gentlemanly conduct of the 19th century, offering a truly unique glimpse into the game's origins.

Vintage Base Ball is more than just a game; it’s a celebration of history and community. From the “striker” to the “hurler,” every term, uniform detail, and rule reflects baseball as it was in 1869. Watch in amazement as players respect the code of honor, there’s no arguing with the umpire, no spitting, and no showboating: just fair play, fun, and fantastic local tradition.
