History

Answer:

The correct answer is D. The Confederate defeat at Antietam was important to the North because it prevented Britain from supporting the Confederacy in the war.

Explanation:

The Battle of Antietam is one of the largest battles in the history of the United States of America in terms of the number of casualties (dead and wounded) that reached 23,000 from both sides. The battle took place on September 17, 1862, near the town of Sharpsburg, Maryland. The battle was led by General George McClellan and the Confederate South by General Robert Edward Lee. Despite the numerical superiority of the North, McLennan failed to achieve a decisive tactical victory, and Lee was able to withdraw some of his troops to Virginia. Strategically, the battle was seen as a marginal victory for the North, that prevented both France and Great Britain from entering into the war to help the Confederacy.

During its earliest years, professional baseball was
erik [133]

Answer:

During earliest years professional baseball was known as "Rounders".

Explanation:

The term baseball can be dated to 1744 in John Newbery's children's book A Nice Little Pocket Book. The book contains a short poem and an illustration depicting a game called baseball. Interestingly, the basics of the illustration are marked with posts instead of the pockets and flat plate that are now so well known in the game. The book was popular in England and was reprinted in North America in 1762 (New York) and 1787 (Massachusetts).

Many other early references to racket and ball games with bases are known: a British newspaper from 1749 referring to Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales, who plays "bass ball" in Surrey, England; "Play on the Base" at the American Army camp in Valley Forge in 1778; the ban on students "playing with balls and sticks" at the Commons of Princeton College in 1787; a note in the memories of Thurlow Weed, a publisher and politician from northern New York, of a baseball club founded around 1825; a newspaper report that the Rochester Baseball Club (New York) had about 50 members in the 1820s; and remembers old Oliver Wendell Holmes about his days at Harvard in the late 1820s and said he played a lot in college.

The Boy's Own Book (1828), and often frequently reprinted book on English sports played by children of that time, contained a chapter on rounders play in its second edition.
