The athlete of Panathinaikos Kostas Zogas organizd baseball matches, basketball and hockey. On 11 April 1946 the Tennis Avenue hosted the first recorded baseball game in Greece between American warships Missouri and Providence. The second baseball game in Greece held again in golf Avenue on June 3, 1955. Team formed by Americans and Greek soldiers prevailed with a score of 14-10.[2]
