Thanks. Good to know that. Of course "knickers" are named after the kind of funny looking trousers the real Dutch Knickerbockers wore, but that would have nothing to do with the baseball team. Ortolan88
There's lots to be said about uniforms.
Gareth, saw your comment for your last edit. Maybe you could even split it into more articles, since the first part only seems to go about the MLB, except for the introduction. Anyway, it's very US-centered, so the "History of Baseball" would rather link to sub-articles on "History of MLB" and "History of Baseball at the Olympics" etc. Jeronimo
Except for the first section, the article is more the history of baseball in the US (mostly MLB). I think at least a section could be devoted to development of the sport in other countries. It's quite popular in Japan and Korea, there's a long history of baseball in Europe as well (Italy and the Netherlands the dominant powers there) and in many Latin American countries (Cuba!). What about the World Championships for amateur teams, the inclusion in the Olympics? jheijmans
You're right. What are you waiting for? -- GWO
Well, the rest of the article looks like it was written by people with far greater knowledge of baseball than I have. I could write some very basic paragraphs about the topic mentioned above (which I might do), but I hoped to trigger the experts to do so. jheijmans
Mainly RjLesch and myself. But my "expertise" doesn't touch on the areas you mention, so theres no point leaving it to me. If you write your basic paragraphs, you might trigger the actual experts
OK, I've gone and added the Olympic history of baseball (that's where I know most of), will add more later (see subsections already added). Feel free to add or re-organise, of course. jheijmans
