Baseball: A Few Interesting Facts
Consensus has it that baseball originated as “Rounders”. It was an amateur game played on sandlots. The game actually had its beginnings, as we know it, around 1861. The first professional baseball league began in 1871. Today, there are teams throughout the U.S.

There are two leagues, the National League and the American League. In the 1920’s, baseball became a favorite when Babe Ruth , playing for the New York Yankees, became a “Home Run Hero”. Another well known athlete was Jackie Robinson, of the Brooklyn Dodgers. He was the first African-American player in the major leagues in 1947. Throughout the history of baseball, many players have pitched, hit, caught, and become “All Stars”. What little boy doesn’t dream of one day playing in the Nationals and breaking his favorite player’s record?

Today, baseball has become a part of most American families’ lives. They either watch it on T.V., go to the stadium to watch the pros, or spend hours each week watching their own child play T-ball, softball, or baseball. Family reunions involve baseball or softball games, or at least a game of catch during the day. What began 150 years ago now has become a part of the American family as we know it today.
Baseball and America – They fit together like a hand and a glove.

Unique Personalized Sports Gift Ideas - Baseball Bag Tags






How Peculiar Got It's Name

When people hear the address of our business they usually smile and comment something like, "...so that's the reason for the name PeculiarStuff.com" It makes me wonder if they thought we just had a bunch of weird stuff to sell, or maybe they thought we were a bunch of weirdo's. With all that being said I thought I would take this opportunity to explain how our home town, Peculiar, Missouri got it's name.

In pre-Civil War times the pioneer settlers decided their drowsy, maple-shaded hamlet ought to have a name. After several sessions in the general store they narrowed the choice to three names, but couldn't settle on any one. All three names were sent to the post office for consideration. All three were in use elsewhere. They decided to appeal directly to the postmaster general, agreeing to let him make the final decision. 'We don't care what name you give us,' they said, 'so long as it is sort of peculiar.'

Probably with tongue in cheek the postmaster general wrote a long and courteous reply. He said he had given their predicament grave consideration. 'My conclusion.' he wrote, 'is that in all the land it would be difficult to imagine a more distinctive, a more peculiar name than Peculiar.' and Peculiar it has remained ever since. {Found in a clipping courtesy of Gladys Stanka.}
