Baseball Gloves in History

TCS Daily

Being a baseball fanatic, pretty interesting stuff. I love seeing the old game films where the players would leave their gloves on the field while their team took its at-bat. The opposition simply played around the opponents' gloves. Had no idea Spaulding was actually a 19th century player. On a personal note, I have my recently departed grandfather's glove from the 40's, which I think is pretty cool.
