You will probably not have a clue who the my choice is as  “Father of Nashville 19th Century Baseball.” His name is Will Bryan, and he did not even start out as a baseball man. 

His exploits are remarkable albeit he was also a bit of a scoundrel. He is still on my list because he not only helped found the inaugural Southern League in 1885, he helped form the first professional Nashville baseball team for the new league.

I hope you will listen!
