One of our members was at Yankee Stadium 70 years ago today when Don Larsen pitched a perfect game in the World Series against the Brooklyn Dodgers.

Read his recollections in the Fall issue of “Eleventh Street Eagle.”

We have been known to distribute some. 😊 We even offered an exclusive set of Dick Perez cards in conjunction with our screening of “The Diamond King.” And we’ve co-hosted two baseball card shows.

Glad we achieved our goal of providing simultaneous entertainment and education!

Of course we would LOVE to see an MLB game at historic Hinchliffe Stadium… the only ballpark that already exists inside a National Park.
