Hurl of 2008!

Welcome to the website of "America's Team", the Rochester Grangers! The Rochester Grangers Base Ball Club was formed in the 1860's as part of a merchants league. Other local teams over the years were the Mechanics and the Independents. The 1860 Rochester Grangers have been re-formed to present an interpretive account of how "base ball" was really
played. Be sure to check out the weather at Van Hoosen Farm below, or play some games such as a Wheel of Fortune type game, a word search, and a memory game all with vintage base ball terms and teams! Find out what happened This Day in Baseball History!
