The 6th Annual Base Ball Classic between the Nutley Colonels and the Flemington Nashanock Base Ball Club is scheduled for Saturday, May 15, 2021, 1-3 p.m., at Yantacaw Park (between Park Drive and Passaic Avenue) in Nutley.

The Flemington Neshanock Base Ball Club plays by 19th century rules, uses authentic replicas of 19th century equipment, and wears 19th century uniforms. As was the custom in the mid-19th century, all fielders play barehanded—they do not wear gloves. Today’s Neshanock team was re-established in 2001 by Brad “Brooklyn” Shaw, and the original name of the team was revived.

The Nutley Colonels was a semi-professional base ball club that was managed by a local All-State baseball star, Anthony J. San Giacomo.

Refreshments will be available for purchase.
