Join us at the Library as we spotlight community member, Scott Reich, who is the author of a new book, "One Day in September - Baseball, Brotherhood and the Birth of the All-Star Game", which tells the little-known story of a baseball game played on a September afternoon at Fenway Park in 1917. The game's greatest stars, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson, Tris Speaker, Walter Johnson, Connie Mack and more took the field together in an exhibition played not for standings or championships, but for a colleague who had died, and for a cause larger than the game itself. Mr. Reich will appear in conversation with John O'Connell, former president the PWPL Board of Trustees. Books will be available for purchase and signing. Sponsored by the Friends of the Library.
