Description | "There is convincing documentation that sailors from an American ship (the Montana) docked at Guaymas in 1877 and staged a baseball contest witnessed by local residents. . . . it was not long before there were even reports of local youngsters forming a baseball team of their own." Peter C. Bjarkman, Diamonds Around the Globe (Greenwood Press, 2005), pages 267-268. Doubt has been casts on this Guaymas story by more modern scholarship, which suggests that the beginning of baseball in Guaymas started with Guaymas students studying in California (and playing baseball there) who returned home and played. And that the Montana was already sunk by the claimed date. See Cesar Gonzalez Gomez, "A New Perspective on Mexican Baseball Origins," Base Ball, vol. 1 (Spring 2007), 64-72. |
