| Description | The Canton Repository, July 22, 1923, reports that the Queen of Yugoslavia recently "opened a baseball game at Bucharest, her girlhood home, by throwing in the ball." The article says this is/was the first game played in the Balkans, between Americans resident in Bucharest and "members of the Rumanian [sic] Government staff." The game was played on a ball field, part of a golf/tennis/sports complex for Americans in Bucharest, built by Colonel Charles Greble of Philiadelphia, and known as the Bucharest Country Club. See the Dallas Morning News, July 22, 1923. |
