Ted,

 

I'm forwarding you the announcement about an upcoming meeting of the local SABR chapter.  SABR is the Society for  American Baseball Research.  The local chapter holds meetings in the early fall and spring, and the next one is Saturday the 25th at the Longmeadow library.  The speaker lineup is usually names that baseball fans would recognize.  Recent presenters included Dwight Evans and the sports journalist Bob Ryan.  The location has usually been at Springfield College, but this one is in Longmeadow.

 

Can you post this on the Relics chat site?

 

Thanks/John
