Description

Sawyer, "A History of Williston Seminary" p. 190 says the first game Williston played against a visiting team was in 1866. There's been baseball played at the school for five years prior to this.

The Spalding Scrapbook, NYPL, has an 1868 article listing five games played by the Williston BBC of East Hampton in 1868, against the Active of East Hampton, the Union of West Hampton, and the Woronoco of Westfield.
