ABOUT THE EVENT
Are you missing baseball? With a professional baseball season still uncertain, Phoenixville Public Library gives you the opportunity to talk baseball online with two local baseball figures on Monday, June 29 at 7:00 PM. Julian McCracken and Lou Beccaria’s presentation is entitled, “To Be or Not to Be: Who Should/Shouldn’t Be in the Baseball Hall of Fame”. They’ll lead a discussion of who should or should not be members of the exclusive Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York, and throw out some baseball trivia questions. Attendees are also encouraged to “show off” treasured pieces of their baseball memorabilia.
Phoenixville’s Julian McCracken is a former General Manager of the Reading Phillies and member of the Reading Baseball Hall of Fame who later worked for ProCards in Pottstown and Fleer Trading Cards in Mt. Laurel, NJ. Phoenixville resident Lou Beccaria is the former President and CEO of the Phoenixville Community Health Foundation and has played semi-pro baseball in Philadelphia, coached youth baseball, and written about baseball.
This event is free and open to the public, and will be held online/by phone via Zoom. Reservations are required on the Adult Events Calendar at www.phoenixvillelibrary.org or by calling 610-933-3013 x132.
