Another short segment from my book, Roadside Baseball. In this clip, I return to the site of Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, PA. They tore down the park... but left homeplate! You can order "Roadside Baseball" here:

I (a Yankees fan) saw this as part of a group tour back in Sept. '07. We all got a big kick out of it.

home plate is not in its original location. HP was where a women's restroom now sits about 30-40 feet away in Posvar Hall

The Yankees should return to "Forbes Field". A memorable event happened against "The Yankees" at Pittsburgh's Forbes Field in 1960. Hey, Yankee Fans remember....
