In the Mar/Apr 2021 issue of San Diego Lawyer, George W. Brewster, Jr.’s regular history column covers the “The Basics of Baseball”. His column discusses early baseball, the rediscovery of Doc Adams’ handwritten “Laws of Base Ball“, and their “almost mythical cadence”. Brewster quotes John Thorn’s declaration of Doc Adams as “the true father of baseball”. He also talks to and about the super fan, Hayden Trubitt, the current owner of the “Laws of Base Ball”. Trubitt, a lawyer and former President of the San Diego County Bar Association, purchased the Laws at auction for over $3 million in 2016.
