Baseball Spring Training has begun everywhere! Do you know anything about this Neavitt team? Where did they play? Are you related to or know any of these players? Was this a minor league team or a High School team? Photo from the Talbot Historical Society Archives. It was originally donated to us by Laurie Blumberh in 2011.

I can identify 3 of the players, one being my Dad Bob Boinski, front row left. A call to Louis Jones in Neavitt would help identify the entire team. Almost all of the towns and villages on the shore fielded a ball team. The Neavitt team traveled pretty far, like to Hoopers Island, ect. When my Dad 1st moved here from Milwaukee in 1946, his uniform bore my mothers’ family name , Bridges, to let everyone know who (locally) he belonged to. The fellow pictured next to him is Louis Jones and his brother Joe Jones is in the back row, one in from the left.
