|Pagetext=The first known reference to the Canastota Club was in a Syracuse newspaper account of its game against the visiting Syracuse BBC in August 1859. The game was played in a grassy field where "the very many little depressions of an ordinary meadow field rendered entirely uncertain the course of a bounding ball." SBBC won the game by 6 runs. | |Pagetext=The first known reference to the Canastota Club was in a Syracuse newspaper account of its game against the visiting Syracuse BBC in August 1859.
