SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN, MA, December 26, 1888.

* 1st Indoor Baseball Game
* 1888 Original Report


This 8 page newspaper has an interesting one column headline on page 5: "BASE-BALL PLAYED INDOORS" with subhead: "The Down Towns Defeat the Uptowns at Philadelphia" which tells of the very first baseball game played indoors.

Other news of the day with some interesting advertisements. Usual browning and somewhat pulpish.
