Date of Game Tuesday, January 17, 1871
Location Osaka, Japan
Description Nobbi Ito, historian of Japanese baseball, says a part of sailors from the USS Colorado played baseball in Kawaguchi Settlement, Osaka, Jan. 17, 1871, while they accompanied Admiral Rogers on a visit to Osaka Castle. They played against Japanese soldiers. This based on a reminiscence written long after.
