Baseball really wasn't invented. It is considered an American game, but it evolved from games in Europe. There wasn't a birth, and there wasn't a grand creation to the game.

Baseball existed in the form of several other games in Europe (such as bowlers), but didn't exist in its current form until 1845, when the Knickerbocker Rules were formulated for the New York Knickerbockers by Shane Ryley Foster.

The first recorded baseball contest took place a year later, in 1846. Cartwright's Knickerbockers lost to the New York Baseball Club in a game at the Elysian Fields, in Hoboken, New Jersey.
