New Episode Alert! Spotlight 219 Sponsored by Horseshoe Casino Hammond

On this episode, I sat down with Ryan Trisler and Jim Basala from the Deep River Grinders to talk all things vintage base ball!

We discussed how the program got started, what keeps this incredible tradition alive, and some of the unique 1858 rules that make the game completely different from modern baseball — including no gloves, one-bounce outs, underhand pitching, and the emphasis on sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct.

If you’ve ever been curious about vintage baseball or wanted to learn more about one of Northwest Indiana’s coolest traditions, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Even though the Deep River Grinders were started in 1991, they play a style of baseball from the original rules of 1858.
