On Saturday, April 15, as part of our 161st Battle Anniversary, we will be hosting a Vintage Base Ball double-header on the battlefield. The Cumberland Club of Nashville and the Franklin Farriers of the Tennessee Association of Vintage Base Ball will play two matches beginning at 11:00 am and 1:30 pm in Duncan Field using the 1864 rules.

Bring your lawn chairs and picnic baskets or pull up a bale of straw and enjoy baseball as the soldiers knew it. A vendor will be on site selling snacks, candy, soft drinks, and water. This event is free and open to everyone of all ages!
