Major League Baseball debuts in Worcester: 132 years ago today
Having fun digging through my 43 years of Worcester baseball research box to find images tied to the first game of The Worcesters, the city's National League team from 1880-82. Here's a combination of newspaper ads, pictures (most courtesy of The Worcester Historical Museum http://www.worcesterhistory.org) and a map of the Worcester County Agricultural Fairgrounds, where the team played, in 1880 dropped atop a map of today.
