Baseball in Dublin

El Paso Herald - November 8, 1918
Now, if we were to take this single news article at face value, we would have something to celebrate.  But "the first international baseball game that Dublin has seen"?  I don't know.

A year before that a game was scheduled to be played in that same city.

I haven't discovered if that came was just arranged or it was actually played.  Interestingly enough the following Mark Twain quote was on the same newspaper page.
