Columbus Baseball

The first organized baseball club in central Ohio was the Buckeye Baseball Club of Columbus, in 1866. They played their home games on a field located between the old Union Depot and High Street not too far from where the new Huntington Park will be located.

The Clippers franchise was born in 1977 as an affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates, changing its affiliation to the New York Yankees in 1979. In 2007, the Clippers became the affiliate of the Washington Nationals.
