CE-HIST 2030 - Slicing Big Apple Baseball


Did you know that Babe Ruth had 25 nicknames, or that Brooklyn had 25 semi-pro teams before they morphed into the Dodgers? And can you believe outfielders once caught fly balls with their helmets? These are some of the colorful vignettes you will learn as you trace NYC baseball from its origins before the Dodgers, Yankees, and Giants to the modern era. Learn rule changes, changing demographics, and inside information. Baseball enthusiasts and historians will love this course! We’ll end with a simulated game of stickball and an egg cream on the house!
