Description

" a base ball club has been formed in Edinburgh University by the American students of the university..." Birmingham Post, April 11, 1890.

It appears the instigators were students H. A. Sheffield and T. B. Moore. See Edinburgh Evening News, March 18, 1890, April 7, 1890. By 1891 the "strong team representing Edinburgh University" was visiting Derby to play the baseball club there on the Derby baseball ground. See the Manchester Courier, Aug. 17, 1891. This Derby team was sponsored by local manufacturer Sir Francis Ley, and was formed from the football team of Derby County.
