When was baseball the great American pastime used for the 1st time?
"On December 5, 1856, the New York Mercury coined the phrase "the national pastime." However, a year earlier other New York newspapers called the new game, baseball, a "national game." But, baseball was far from a "national" anything at this time. It was very regional to the New York-- specifically New York City. These papers qualified their statements in the years to follow, the New York Clipper went as far as to say it had "no State existence even--to say nothing of a National one," in 1858. Baseball would not become a truly "national game until after the Civil War, and it did not become a democratic game until the integration of the mid-nineteenth century.For sources see: Jules Tygiel, Past Time: Baseball as History, (Oxford University Press: Oxford, 2000), 5-6; see also, Ken Burns documentary, Baseball, "Inning 1, Our Game, 1840s-1900."
