About the Lemont Quarrymen: In 2011, history buffs and baseball lovers united to form the Lemont Quarrymen, a vintage base ball team. This club, ranging in age from 16-72, showcases the way base ball was played in 1858. At matches, the Quarrymen tend their bases and scout the outfield without mitts, always hoping that the “onion” is knocked their way. While at bat, the ballists strike with their willows to knock the “apple out of the orchard” or “cut some daisies” in order to tally more aces than their opponents. For these Quarrymen winning is nice, but its pursuit never dims their gentlemanly characters. For more information about the Lemont Quarrymen Vintage Base Ball Club, please click here.
