Baseball

Opening Day has arrived and the baseball season has officially begun!  You can learn all about baseball from Baseball: The Game and Beyond and get information on New England's Major League Baseball team the Boston Red Sox.

If you are interested in going to a game a little closer to home, check out the Pawtucket Red Sox and the Newport Gulls.

For a great book to get you geared up for baseball season try:

Ballpark: The Story of America's Baseball Fields by Lynn Curlee

From the first ballpark converted from an ice rink in 1862 to the space-aged Houston Astrodome to the league's newest state-of-the-art stadiums, this book tells the history of baseball through its ballparks. As America changed so did its ballparks, and their various architectural forms helped shape the game we know today.
