Description

The national pastime started to take root in South Bend within the 1860s when teams like the Hoosiers, Excelsiors, and Rough-and-Readys took the sector to the delight of local fans. By 1878, the legendary South Bend Greenstocking had arrived at the scene, winning the mythical Indiana State Baseball Championship and organising the nickname of choice for South Bend baseball for future years. The next decades saw the rising popularity of not only minor league baseball but in addition barnstorming teams, indoor baseball, factory leagues, and men’s and women’s amateur leagues. This wealthy baseball heritage is carried on as of late by the South Bend SilverHawks of the Class-A Midwest League.
