Hi all,
As I've mentioned before I am a history major in college, with one of my passions being baseball, the two themes often intersect and I often find myself lerning about new and interesting, events, tidbits individuals and pioneers of the sport. I was recently introuduced to the story of Glenn Burke as the first openly gay baseball player and the trials he faced. I've read a bit on him and watched a documentary and have learned quite a bit about him. Burke was a remarkable and extremely strong human being in addition to being an outstanding athlete. It is also debated that he, in the spur of the moment gesture, gave Dusty Baker the first high-5. Now, I'd like to see what cards, autographs and other memorbilia might be out there or in your collections in regards to Glenn and his career? ![]() |
