Baseball games played by the rules of the 19th Century. Sundays Starting April thru October. Newcomers welcome to play. Uniform provided, but bring your own shoes.
Old Bethpage is recognized by the Smithsonian as the birthplace of vintage baseball, with the first game of its kind played on the restoration grounds during a Civil War re-enactment in August 1979. Athletes who play vintage baseball follow historic rules and wear traditional baseball uniforms, similar to how the game was played in the mid-1800s.
The field was used as a filming location for a 2004 remote segment for the "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" show as he visited to learn about the old time sport.
