This year marks the 150th anniversary of the first-ever college baseball game, and the game will be re-enacted in Pittsfield, Mass.

"I've proclaimed Pittsfield 'Baseball's Garden of Eden,' " Pittsfield Mayor James Ruberto said.

"Our respect and our love for the game is every bit as rich as you would see in Boston or St. Louis or Chicago -- the true baseball cities in our country."

The game was re-enacted on Sunday morning in Pittsfield.
