The developement of of a word in language rarely takes place in issolation - rather it evolves. While it is impossible to pin an exact date to when the words base and ball were united whether in common conversation or in print - I was wondering what them what reads book and newspaper accounts of the early game, ticket - schedule and broadside collectors, and them souls who like ephemera think would be a generalized date in which the two were brought together. Nothing important I know - but as I was looking thru some old paper I realized I didn't have an answer.
