As the United States’ national sport and pastime, baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of nine players each. Some attribute baseball’s beginnings to the English sports of Cricket and Rounders. The bat-and-ball sports played in the United States, Europe, or elsewhere in the world prior to 1845 did not resemble the standard of modern day rules as to which baseball has continuously used since the mid-19th century. In 1845, Alexander Cartwright wrote the official and codified set of regulated rules of baseball formally known as the Knickerbocker Rules. On June 3, 1953, the United States Congress unanimously credited Cartwright with inventing the modern game of baseball which led to his appointment into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
