This is Homestand, a journal focused on small-town baseball and community. I will provide periodic dispatches from reporting trips as I write a book for Doubleday exploring the importance of small town baseball in bringing people together. The newsletter will be free and include accounts and photos from my travels, using baseball to provide a window into life in places far from the big cities that too often dominate our news and culture. I will introduce the reader to the devoted fans, management, players, and coaches who populate this fascinating - yet endangered - ecosystem.
