COOPERSTOWN — About 75 residents of Pathfinder Village got to play on their own field of dreams Sunday, Aug. 15, as they received instruction from former major league players at Doubleday Field.
"This is just unbelievable," said Pathfinder President/CEO Paul Landers.
"There's a lot of happy faces here today, a lot of lifetime memories," said former MLB player and manager Clint Hurdle, who is an advisor for Baseball Miracles.
The event took form over the summer as Baseball Miracles, a nonprofit group dedicated to bringing baseball to "underserved communities around the world," contacted the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum and asked if it would be possible to hold an event in Cooperstown.
