George Donnelly Sunset League
- George Donnelly Sunset League
The George Donnelly Sunset League plays its games at Cardines Field in Newport, Rhode Island. Play began in 1919 when the New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad gave permission to a group of its employees to establish the Sunset League. The Sunset League is so named because games began at 5:30 P.M. and ended at dusk. Still playing games today, the Sunset League is the oldest continuous amateur baseball league in the United States.
