An indie rock supergroup composed of Steve Wynn (Dream Syndicate), Scott McCaughey (Young Fresh Fellows), Linda Pitmon (Zuzu’s Petals) and Mike Mills and Peter Buck (R.E.M.), The Baseball Project has become well-loved for their brilliant, catchy and historically accurate songs of baseball lore and oddball characters. A concert by The Baseball Project is not to be missed and the chance to see them at the Hall of Fame’s Grandstand Theater is a one-of-a-kind event.
