Players excited for cracks in Oldtime Baseball Game
Former Red Sox pitching star Jim Lonborg, a member of the legendary 1967 Impossible Dream team, will head line Thursday’s 22nd annual Abbott Financial Management Oldtime Baseball Game at St. Peter’s Field on Sherman Street in North Cambridge. First pitch is at 7 p.m.
Proceeds of the game benefit the National Technical Institute for the Deaf, and will help to endow the Oldtime Baseball Game/Dummy Hoy Scholarship, which will be awarded to a deaf or hard-of-hearing student from New England to attend the Rochester Institute of Technology. The scholarship recognizes William “Dummy” Hoy, long considered one of baseball’s first well-known deaf players.
