	The Paper: Sports History
		As early as 1899, sports stories were being grouped under label headlines such as “The Diamond and other sports” and “Sports of all sorts,” but the space allotted was always a column or less.
		What little sports news that appeared in the paper was of a recreational nature, such as an 1887 baseball game between a team of married men and a squad of bachelors.
		Winter sports also broke into print that year with the appearance of local bowling scores, basketball results and “hot-stove league” baseball news.

	Bobby Hill
		Although he played only one year in the major leagues, he surely played professional baseball before 1899 and possibly after 1899, however, not on the major league level.
		Players would hide baseballs strategically in the tall outfield grass.
		Baltimore was certainly the greatest major league baseball franchise in that time period.

	MAY, 1899 BaseballLibrary.com

		In Cincinnati, Giants pitcher Cy Seymour hits two doubles and two singles, but his wildness costs him a win against the Reds.

	SI.com - SI.com Goes to the Movies
		The roster of baseball movies made since the 1899 one-reeler entitled Casey at the Bat numbers about 120, and although there are a few standouts -- most notably, Pride of the Yankees and Bang the Drum Slowly-- the genre as a whole has been about as successful as the Seattle Pilots.
		Baseball has to platoon with love (or sex) in the movie for box office considerations, and given the won-lost record of past baseball pictures, that's understandable.
		The Natural, the last baseball movie worth talking about, was lovingly crafted and wonderfully acted, but as a friend of mine said, ''It's a baseball movie for girls.''
