| Text | Blodgett, J. (composer), "The Base Ball Polka" [Buffalo, Blodgett and Bradford], per David Block, Baseball Before We Knew It, page 218. Block marks this as the first baseball sheet music, as composed by a member of the Niagara Base Ball Club of Buffalo. "On the title page, under an emblem of two crossed bats over a baseball, is a dedication 'To the Flour City B. B. Club of Rochester, N.Y. by the Niagara B. B. Club.'" |
