In May of 2005, the Bay City Independents took the field for the very first time — and standing across from us that day were the gentlemen of the Mount Clemens Regulars.
Now, 20 years later, we’re celebrating our anniversary season by facing that very same club — not just our first opponent, but some of our closest friends and most respected rivals in vintage base ball.
This isn’t just a match — it’s a reunion, a tribute, and a celebration of two decades of camaraderie, competition, and unforgettable moments.
This season marks a milestone — two decades of grit and 1860s-style base ball played with heart and heritage.
The Bay City Independents are proud to celebrate 20 years of honoring the game the way it was meant to be played — barehanded, respectful, and rooted in history.
Whether you’ve been cheering from the start or you’re new to the cranks, this is the season to join us. We’ve got big plans, fierce rivalries, and a full schedule of matches that will transport you back in time.
Come out, bring your friends, your family, your folding chairs — and be a part of something timeless.
