Description
Rain Date
Come watch base ball as it used to be played under 1860 rules! The "Rockwall Retros" will play the "Farmers Branch Mustangs" at the Campbell Softball/Baseball complex across the street from Rockwall High School. First pitch is at 1:00 pm. Enjoy ball game food from the concession stand, and read the program that includes the base ball rules and customs of that era, as well as 19th century base ball slang. BTW, the term base ball was not a combined word until the 1930's!
This event is a fundraiser produced by the Rockwall County Historical Foundation.
