A Mecca for fans of the game. Old wood, leather, and cotton for those who aren’t. 😆

You need to do it. Great museum!

Place definitely lived up to expectations for me.

No problem! I’m sure it is not the best video out there but I’ve always been a pretty big baseball fan and wanted to capture my visit for myself if for no one else.

Drive there is beautiful too. You are really in small town upstate New York.

Every baseball fan needs to get there at least once. Beautiful area around it too.

Glad it was helpful!

It is deep in the middle of upstate New York so even though there are some beautiful lakes and picturesque small towns it pretty much has to be the destination. A lot on both Ruth and Robinson so he may enjoy that and there are plenty of buttons to push to activate a lot of exhibits.

It’s a real cool place. I’ll have to go back again myself one day.

They cover all teams fairly well. Definitely some recent Rangers stuff that might've found its way in there! Pretty sure they had some Nolan Ryan as a Rangers stuff there.

Thanks Robert! Love that place.

For a baseball fan this is THE place. For non fans it is a building full of old leather and wood. Not a single leech inside of this place though so it has that going for it! lol

Thanks for stopping by, Gary. Any big baseball fan should make the trek here at least once.

@@TheTolleRoad It's been about 35 years since I went. I need to see it again.

Been there a couple of times myself now. Wasn’t sure when they stopped playing the HOF game there. They need to bring that back.

It is to baseball fans what Uranus is to fudge lovers

Was so awesome... was just Rollie, Ken Reitz, a buddy of mine, and myself chatting at a bar. I immediately showed my baseball nerdiness and said, “Rollie Fingers 341 saves!”. Great guys that were awesome for putting up with my annoyance.

@@TheTolleRoad Baseball nerdiness is SO awesome. Glad to be a card-carrying member of that club. (Now where is that card...

Thanks for stopping by Viper

I absolutely agree. I think baseball’s history is what makes it unique to other sports.

Nice!

Awesome spot. You’ll love it if you’re a baseball ⚾️ fan.

@@TheTolleRoad Ik I’m gonna love it I’ve been waiting for the day I get to go. Same with Wrigley field

@@Thedominator-tr2su Wrigley Field and Fenway Park are musts!!! Who’s your team?

@@TheTolleRoad I’m a tigers fan. And I’ve gotten to go to a game at Fenway and only got to take pictures in front of wrigley

@@Thedominator-tr2su awesome, I went to old Tigers Stadium the year before they closed it.

Place is awesome. Just so many amazing things I remember seeing or reading about growing up. Babe Ruth’s Jersey and Hank Aaron’s locker?! Amazing.

Gotta love the Philly Fanatic

@@TheTolleRoad fly eagles fly and go Phillies. But my first team was I grew up watching the reds. Was at the game when Lou Pinella threw second base into the outfield

Nice! Ole Lou going nuts

@@TheTolleRoad lmao I know right

I saw that! What was it? Like $12 million?!?!? 1952 Topps rookie card I believe.

@@TheTolleRoad $12.6 million 1952 Tops card. It wasn't a rookie card, it was the first year Tops made cards.

I had all those baseball cards I threw away in the 1950s and 60s when I was 10 years old. Now I'd be a millionaire if I kept them!

Any baseball fan has to get there at least once.

😂ain't that the truth!!!

@@TheTolleRoad lol. It's okay though cuz I like the Reds. I think they might need new ownership or something though. They've been bad for a while. Sucks to see Joey votto never get in the playoffs. Players like Todd Frazier they've had players. Scott Rolen played over there. Pete Rose etc.

They've gotten rid of any player with a pulse the last few years. At least no one can call me a bandwagon fan! lol

You got the last laugh last night.

@@TheTolleRoad Last night, their offense actually showed up! We can pitch. Just can't hit.

Arigatō gozaimashita

Yeah, I have been back to Louisville in a couple of years and there is a lot of stuff I want to see there either again or for the first time.

@@TheTolleRoad Cool, do some of the Distilleries, people from all over like those. If you ever come into town let me know, maybe we can meet up.

Would love to do the Bourbon Trail

@@TheTolleRoad Oh yea, that's a popular one.

@@TheTolleRoad I wanna finish the bourbon trail and go back to the ones I've been to get footage

That is awesome! Didn’t know about this. Whenever I get back to New York I will definitely check it out.

Time to go back! Hadn't been that long of a gap for me but a sure lot had changed there in the 15 or so years between my trips.

Who’s on first by Abbott and Costello.

Sweet Lou should be in there!

I agree. How is Trammel in, but not Whitaker?

No. He's not a Yankee. So it doesn't matter.

Yeah, I love the fact that it is all local businesses. Beautiful area too.

Agreed

Sorry, that was all just a joke for friends of mine that are from Milwaukee and huge Brewers fans. I have nothing against them and have been to game at Miller Park and old County Stadium. Didn't think anyone besides them would ever watch this video.

Check out Sorgi Stories sometime. They are huge Brewers/Packers/Bucks fans.

Last spitballer and best name in baseball!

@@TheTolleRoad thank you,I'm just trying to get his name out there,did you read Steve steinberg book about Urban,I just sent away for it

No, but I’ve read Charles Faber’s Last of the Spitballers (or something like that)

@@TheTolleRoad I will look for it

Cards are represented pretty well in the museum and Pujols will be joining them soon enough.

🤔 never heard that before. I guess I’ll have to listen to Jeter talk and pay more attention.

@@TheTolleRoad sorry

@@MyDadsKZfaq No worries, I just haven’t heard that before and I’m curious what Jeter sounds like now. You may right.

@@MyDadsKZfaq Just watched an old interview of his. His voice is pretty good so I hope I do sound like him.

When did pujols test positive?
