Impossible to know, as the game we now call Baseball evolved from the English game of rounders and the American game of town ball. No record exists of when, exactly, the game we now know as 'baseball,' as opposed to some other game, was first played.

The story that it was done by Abner Doubleday in 1836 was an obvious hoax, of no more historic interest than Piltdown Man.
