Cooperstown, NY Hall of Fame Trip

May 3–6, 2001 — Richard, Pat Jennings, Randy, and Mike Parker traveled to Cooperstown, NY to visit the Baseball Hall of Fame. In addition to showcasing important baseball artifacts, the HOF also featured exhibits on important ballparks, the evolution of equipment (gloves, bats, uniforms, etc.), the Negro Leagues, Women’s baseball leagues during WWII, and special exhibits on Babe Ruth and Willie Mays. It was a great experience that brought back many baseball memories. If you haven’t been to Cooperstown, I would highly recommend it. We also attended the Giants vs. Phillies game Saturday night. Us ALers were enlightened on the strategy that occurs in NL games. 46 games of Strat-o-Matic were played between the 4 managers on the trip.
