Baseball To-Day -- March 9, 2014


An ad from the 31-December-1898 San Francisco Call for baseball at Recreation Park.  Note that neither Santa Cruz nor Seattle was truly at home, but they could make better gate receipts playing in San Francisco.  Recreation Park at 8th and Market was used by many baseball teams, including the San Francisco Seals when the Pacific Coast League started in 1903. 

I'm enjoying spring training, even though the Giants lost 18-3 to the Mariners yesterday.
