SAUGERTIES — Last Saturday, the Bovina Dairymen and Mountain Athletic Club of Fleischmanns traveled to Glasco Firemen’s Park in the Town of Saugerties for a triple-header of nineteenth century base ball hosted by the Brickmaker Base Ball Club of Saugerties. The annual event, now in its third year, was named the Pigeon Pennant in honor of Frank Pidgeon - a pioneer ship-builder, among the best pitchers of the 1850’s, and founder of the Eckford Base Ball of Brooklyn in 1855. The event began with a M.A.C. win over the hosts, followed by a M.A.C. loss in a very competitive game with the Dairymen. The day wrapped up with another Dairymen win over the Brickmakers.
The three teams will join 8 more vintage clubs from the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic Regions at the Cowtown Scramble Vintage Base Ball Festival on October 4-5, 2025 in Bovina Center. For more information, visit
