Dr. Harry Radousky—Why Hank Wouldn't Play on Yom Kippur: Jews in Baseball (In Person or on Zoom)

In partnership with Congregation Beth Emek

The history of baseball is filled with interesting stories of Jewish players. In this program we'll take a closer look at many of the famous—and perhaps slightly less famous—players over the past 160 years, as well putting them in a historical context. The story continues today, as we take a look at the 16 Jewish players on an active Major League roster. From Moe Berg to Hank Greenberg to Sandy Koufax, baseball gives us unique insights into a changing America.
