Enjoy your cake and watch a documentary too!  Coffee and dessert will be served.

Narrated by two-time Academy Award winner Dustin Hoffman.

Traces the Jewish involvement in the history of the sport from the game's earliest days, through the tumultuous war years, to today's All-Star games. By analyzing various stages in this history, including how the legendary Sandy Koufax pioneered rights for players and Hank Greenberg's support of Jackie Robinson, the film demonstrates how Jews shaped baseball, and baseball shaped them.
