Trying to get in two or three short-ish posts today …

This one is just a reminder about the Society for American Baseball Research’s Jerry Malloy Negro Leagues conference this August — Thursday is the deadline for the early-bird registration.

It should be a very interesting gathering; the topic is African-American baseball in Detroit and the rest of Michigan, much of which remains a somewhat unexplored topic. Plus I’ll be giving a presentation there on Detroit native William Binga.

Sorry, had to get that little personal plus in. 🙂 Hope to see you in the Motor City!
