ABOUT

A loose knit group of former baseball players gathered during the 1940’s and
1950’s to form a unique baseball organization. Beginning in 1946 or 1947, the
group began hosting an annual old-timers game, sponsored by the Fort Wayne
Baseball Federation for the benefit of amateur baseball within the city.
However, there was little formal activity until 1953 when it the formation of a
local National Hot Stove League of America was announced, complete with newly
elected officers.

However, facing diminished interest in the early 1960’s, the group was revamped
to boost public and media interest. The restructuring included a name change to
the Fort Wayne Oldtimers Baseball Association. Additionally, at the October 16,
1961 meeting, Co-Chairmen, Red Carrington and Elmer Wagner, announced the
formation of a Fort Wayne Baseball Hall of Fame; with Lou Holterman and James
“Hub” Hart being named as the first two inductees.

They continued to operate through the 1970’s and 1980’s before going on hiatus
in the early 1990’s. In 1992, a halt in group activity was spurred by the
unfortunate passing of many of the more proactive members. A few short years
later, in 1998 led mainly by Bob Parker, the group resurfaced and revived the
induction of deserving candidates to the local Hall of Fame. 

In 2003, the group undertook another name change to the modern-day Northeast
Indiana Baseball Association (NEIBA). NEIBA hosts an annual Hall of Fame and
Awards Banquet and publishes a quarterly publication, Line Drives.
