In America we celebrated Memorial Day yesterday,
a day to remember those who served and sacrificed
for our country.
We tend celebrate all thing Americana too.
So of course, a vintage baseball game was in order.
The blue team is the home team,
the Newtown Strakes.
The visiting team is in red,
they are the Flemington Neshanock.
Here is a call for YOU to decide.
I will tell you how it was called after the photo.
My 'through the fence photo'
provides 21st century technological evidence...
not that they had anything like that in 1863!
I guess the 'home team' won't want to see that shot,
cause it was called an out.
I was happy to meet a blogging friend
"Matty" at the game.
He read about last year's game on my blog
and was able to make it out this year.
I have more pics I will be posting in my gallery later this week,
but for now I am already late getting Midweek Blues up!

Hi Rebecca,
Love those old uniforms!
I called out - too bad the ref saw differently.
i enjoyed this post--the photos especially. the 4th photo is an excellent action shot--love it!
Very patriotic at the (old) ball game, Rebecca.
A very nice post. Happy MidWeek Blues.

BTW, it doesn't link to MidWeek-Blues.

I love Matty! So glad you could meet him : )
Rebecca, the pleasure was all mine. And it continues each time I see these great action shots. Mine pale in comparison.
