Comment	American soldiers may have played baseball in Saltillo in 1847. On January 30, 1847, Adolph Engelmann, an Illinois volunteer, reported: “During the past week we had much horse racing and the drill ground was fairly often in use for ball games.” [cited in Our Game blog] Edit with form to add a comment
