If you’re a South Bend history buff, you may remember the Foundry Giants, a predominantly black baseball team in the 1920's. This new field will help immortalize them, and play host to the next great baseball players. @leogoldmantv has the details. wsbt.com/news/local/his…

The opening of @FoundryField in South Bend reminds of this story I did in the summer of 2020 about the history of the Negro Leagues in the area. Had a lot of fun talking to @nlbmprez for it, and thanks to @thomasminooka for the idea! goshennews.com/sports/south-b…
It was a beautiful celebratory groundbreaking event Friday at #FoundryField in #SouthBendIN, sharing in #play, #story, and #community! Thank you to @socialconcerns, @bgcsjc, @IHCDA, Sappy Moffitt Field Foundation, @IamDetour303, and to all of our community partners and donors.
💚 Look at how cool this is, what these good folks are making together.
I got to spend my entire day out in the community sharing baseball with colleagues, students & neighbors… To quote @NickMainieri, “What could be more worthwhile than building a garden with your neighbors in the middle of the place that you share?”
.@FoundryField will provide a quality public-access baseball field for children and adults in South Bend’s urban core. Come celebrate with us! Friday, May 12, 4-6pm Southeast Park, South Bend foundryfield.org

An excellent, poignant account of a South Bend adult baseball league. "When so much in the world seems so imperiled, what could be more worthwhile than building a garden with your neighbors in the middle of the place that you share?" magazine.nd.edu/stories/extra-…

When a bunch of grown-ups wanted to play baseball again, South Bend's Sappy Moffit League was born. That turned out to be the start of something big for kids in town with limited access to the game. They'll soon have @FoundryField to call home: magazine.nd.edu/stories/extra-…
Was honored to join @SeanStires’s Irish Breakdown podcast today to talk about my recent @ndmagazine story, the @SappyMoffitt league and @FoundryField project. Lots of inside baseball talk here too, literally, thinking about old times w Sean! youtu.be/6BoLDfrNRcE via @YouTube
The @FoundryField project, subject of my recent story in @ndmagazine, will have its groundbreaking celebration on May 12. Looks to be a neat event—please take note if you’re a South Bend community member or are around that afternoon!
@ND_AMST @SMACatND I can’t wait!
