The Red Stockings Of Cincinnati


I once wrote a book called "The Red Stockings Of Cincinnati: Base Ball's First All-Professional Team." The book details the story of the 1869-1870 Cincinnati Red Stockings, the first team in baseball (or "base ball", as the sport was called in 1869-1870) to pay all of its players a salary. The Red Stockings were a powerhouse, going undefeated for 1-1/2 seasons, and they gave rise to professionalism in sports as we know it today (for better or worse).


Signed copies of "The Red Stockings Of Cincinnati" are now available, and 100% of the proceeds go to the international ministry and mission of Celebration Champions Church. To order your signed copy of "The Red Stockings Of Cincinnati", please send a check or money order in the amount of $20 to Celebration Champions Church, 660 Celebration Avenue, Suite 170-210, Celebration, FL 34747.
