It’s ‘Baseball Project Day’ In Cooperstown,

Mayor Katz Proclaims On Village Hall Steps

Clark Sports Center director Val Paige, left, shakes hands with singer-songwriter Steve Wynn of The Baseball Project, which performs with Conor Oberst & Dawes at 7 this evening at Brewery Ommengang.  Cooperstown Mayor Jeff Katz had just proclaimed today "Baseball Project Day in Cooperstown" in a 2 p.m. announcement on the steps of 22 Main.  On the steps are other members of the band, from left, Scott McCaughey, Peter Buck and Linda Pitmon. Buck, an original member of R.E.M., is in the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame.  The Baseball Project was formed in 2007 as "a musical tribute to our national pastime," and Katz, in his remarks, spoke of the parallel goals of the band and Village Hall.  (Jim Kevlin/allotsego.com)
