Description:
I live in Mobile, Alabama wherevI was born and raised. We have a rich history in baseball. Five Hall of Famers. Hank Aaron, Willie McCovey, Billy Williams, Satchel Paige and Ozzie Smith. There are numerous other players that are among the very best. I wrote a book titled MOBILE BASEBALL CONNECTION, which is the History of Baseball in Mobile, Alabama. I have a Facebook Page titled MOBILE BASEBALL CONNECTION. I host a Podcast and Radio Show called the "BATTER'S BOX." We do not have an existing Sports Hall of Fame in Mobile. Our Double A baseball team moved to Huntsville and Hank Aaron Stadium is vacant. The Hank Aaron Childhood home and museum sits on the stadium property collecting dust. My goal is to bring Baseball back to life in Mobile. The Hank Aaron home and museum needs a place that will preserve our baseball history and display the greatness that can't be matched by any City in the World. I am 60 years old and willing to put my heart and soul in to this project for the sake of our strong and historic tradition in baseball. Tourists passing through Mobile are being denied the facts, stories and collections that the History of Baseball Mobile has potential to reveal.
