East Tennessee Historical Society: Home Runs & Home Teams: A History of the National Pastime in Tennessee (Knoxville, TN, USA) March – September, 2025
Home Runs & Home Teams provides an overview of the national pastime as it has played out in the Volunteer State. For every story included in the exhibition, there are hundreds more–from players to pennants, from bat makers to bat boys–that could have been shared. So as you “round the bases,” think about your connections to the game, your ties to the past. What does baseball mean to you and to your community? What baseball stories should libraries and museums preserve to share with future Tennesseans?
Let’s play ball! More info at Home Runs & Home Teams.
