History The first night game was in 1880 and it would be a long wait, 1935, before the first Major League night game would take place. In 1909, George F. Cahill had invented a portable lighting system and saw the potential for night baseball. On August 27, 1910, Cahill managed to get a game played under the lights at Comiskey Park between two amateur teams. Despite the fact that about 20,000 fans showed up, nothing came of it. It was the Minor League teams who soon realized that night games could triple their attendance, and by 1934, most Minor League parks had lights. In December 1934, Larry McPhail, Cincinnati Reds, requested to play night games in 1935, and he was granted permission to play seven, the first was May 24, By 1939, both leagues were seeing the benefits of night games.

3 Scope and Content Correspondence between team executives, the Commissioner, and various electric companies. Topics of discussion include the scheduling of night games and rules that accompany them, attendance compared to day games, and types of lighting available. Certain issues arise due to night games, such as flash photography blinding the batter, therefore a new resolution of no flash photographs was passed. The great fire of September 1950, which caused afternoon games to play with lights on, in Cleveland and Cincinnati.
