Description

"The championship match played on Johnson's Island, August 1, 1864 is the earliest match game, yet discovered, of baseball played in Ohio. This is not to say that baseball had not been previously played in the state or that there were not baseball clubs in Ohio, There were, in fact, clubs, but their activity was limited to intra-club play or play within a club. There was a club in Sandusky and another nearby in Toledo in 1860."

This presumably is the same club mentioned in the Cleveland Daily Leader, Aug. 10, 1866 as the Toledo Base Ball Club, which successfully sued a resident who refused to return base balls hit into his yard!

In 1860, Toledo's population was about 13,800, ranking 68th in the US.
