The first organized sport in American history is often considered to be Baseball, which began to take shape in the mid-19th century. While various bat-and-ball games existed earlier, the establishment of formal rules and organized teams, such as the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club in 1845, marked baseball's emergence as a structured sport. Other early organized sports included rowing and horse racing, but baseball's rapid growth and formalization set it apart as a defining American pastime.
