It’s Enshrinement weekend in Springfield-I created the logo for the Basketball Hall of Fame back in 1997, when websites looked like this.

The Phillies’ Field of Dreams Game uniforms are based on their 1939 look. The research for this resulted in an accurate set of uniform numbers, which is more difficult to create than you’d think. Uniform numbers were relatively new then, and action photos are hard to come by.
Tonight the Phillies will be wearing the 1939 baseball centennial patch on their jersey sleeves. Did you know that it was designed by a woman artist? New Yorker Marjori Bennett created the mark, which was worn across the AL and NL that year. My blog post from 2014: www.toddradom.com/blog/in-1939...

I went to 14 games in 10 different ballparks in 1987. I watched the defending World Series champion Mets and the Montreal Expos, paid $3 for a bleacher seat at Yankee Stadium, went to a game at pre-lights Wrigley Field, and saw rookie 3B Edgar Martinez get the 11th hit of his career for Seattle

This book looks so freaking fantastic
A first look at “The Ballpark and Beyond,” release date May 26.
More or less the same thing, but with different tools (my great grandfather)
Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?
