On a glorious spring day in Simsbury, CT with nearly 100 spectators in attendance and great food provided by Pettibone's Tavern, the Simsbury Taverneers Vintage Base Ball Club played their inaugural game against the Hartford Senators.  Even though the Senators came out on top and beat the Taverneers, the Taverneers showed their strength with many good hits, great pitching, and impressive base running.  In the end, the Senators' hitting and fielding dominated the Taverneers.

Despite the score, the Taverneers played an excellent game and drew complements from both the crowd and from the opposing team.  One Senator player was quoted as saying "the Taverneers are going to be a team to be reckoned with".
