JCC Hours

November 28, 20101-4 p.m.

Don’t miss this high-spirited event, sprinkled with familiar stadium favorites and time-honored baseball reflections. Jews and Baseball brings to life the contributions of Jewish major leaguers and explores the special meaning that baseball has had in the lives of American Jews. It is very much the story of immigration, assimilation, bigotry, heroism, the passing on of traditions, and the shattering of stereotypes. Written by author and Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Ira Berkow, the film is narrated by Academy Award-winner Dustin Hoffman.
