Huntingdon

In the Red River area of what is now Manitoba, residents played a variation known to them as bat.

In Huntington, Quebec, in the 1840s, Hazelton Moore threw the first recorded beanball, leading to a fistfight with the batter.

In 1874, Canadian pitcher William Smith led Guelph to capture the World Semi-Professional Baseball League Championship against Waterton, New York.

Baseball might be America's pastime, but Canada has always been a player.
