From Protoball Entry #1861.13 – Modern Game Comes to the Eastern OH Town
"The Portage County Democrat reported in its April 10, 1861 edition, �The young men of Ravenna have organized a base ball club . . . .' But again, their games were intra club affairs."
John Husman, "Ohio's First Baseball Game," Presented at the SABR Convention, July 16, 2004, page 5. Ravenna OH is about 35 miles SE of Cleveland in eastern Ohio.
Query: Are there clues as to whether this club played by Association rules?
