Josh Pahigian鈥檚 newest book featured by two Florida publications

The most recent book by Josh Pahigian, M.F.A., adjunct faculty in the Department of English and fellow of the Center for Global Humanities, was recently featured on both treasurecoast.com and verovine.com. The publications highlighted the fact that Dodgertown鈥擵ero Beach, Florida鈥攊s ranked as Number 35 in Pahigian鈥檚 鈥101 Places to See Before You Strike Out.鈥

鈥淭he centerpiece of Dodgertown was, and still is, Holman Stadium 鈥 one of the most delightful little ballparks pro ball has ever known, simply because there is so little about it that resembles a professional park,鈥 Pahigian explains. 鈥淲hat you will notice is that the complex sees nearly year-round use now as starry-eyed youths, collegians, and adults play and practice on the very fields once graced by giants of the game like Pee Wee Reese, Robinson, Drysdale, Sandy Koufax, and Fernando Valenzuela.鈥

The articles quote the reaction of Craig Callan, Historic Dodgertown vice president, to the inclusion of Dodgertown in Pahigian鈥檚 must-see list. 鈥淲e are honored and thrilled to be included in the just published 鈥101 Baseball Places to See Before You Strike Out,鈥欌 he stated.
