Baseball
in the
19th Century
with
Mark Riccetti, Jr.
Director of Operations and Programs,
Luzerne County Historical Society
Sunday July 13, 2025 2 PM at the
Paradise Township Municipal Building
Attendees were amazed, astounded and elated to learn the origins of America’s Sport! Mark took us back to the pre-Civil War beginnings of baseball thru the mid 1800’s and its development into a modern sport. Mark is an expert
on the subject and is super enthusiastic about baseball and its history. This was a 'can’t miss' program! We also had on display an antique baseball uniform of Paradise Township's team, from
the PHS Archives.
