| Abner
Doubleday, an 1842 West Point graduate, is said to have devised
the game of baseball while on leave from the U.S. Military
Academy in 1839, drawing out the diamond and the rules of the
game. He called the game "Base Ball," but it was patterned
after a game called rounders which was played by boys and girls
in England. While the origin of baseball has been
disputed, Doubleday, nonetheless, is still given credit and the
baseball field at the U.S. Military Academy was dedicated in his
honor in May 1939, the centennial year of baseball.
Doubleday distinguished himself
throughout his military career, earning the rank of major
general. He served in the Mexican and Civil wars. As a
captain, he fired the first gun for the Union side in the Civil
War at Fort Sumter. On Nov. 29, 1862, he was made a major
general of the volunteers. He retired from the U.S. Army
in 1873 and died Jan. 26, 1893 in New Jersey at the age of 74. |
