Despite Major League Baseball's snubbing, the game's soul lives on in places like Batavia
2022
Overview
The Muckdogs, who previously went by the names \"Clippers\" and \"Trojans,\" spawned several dozen major-leaguers through the decades, including Ryan Howard, a slugging first baseman who would win National League Rookie-of-the-Year and Most Valuable Player honors with the Philadelphia Phillies and Matt Carpenter, who's currently experiencing a baseball rebirth in New York Yankees pinstripes. Before and during the game, I chatted with Will Bardenwerper, an accomplished, Pittsburgh-based author who's spending his summer in places like Batavia, researching a book he's writing about baseball's impact in bringing small towns together. In his highly insightful and entertaining blog, \"Homestead: Baseball and the Fight for the Heart of America,\" Will nails it when he writes \"small town baseball is as much community picnic as sporting event.
