The city of Utica has a rich history in professional baseball.

The 1947 Utica Blue Sox laid the foundation for the team that would go on to become the 1950 National League champion, the Philadelphia Phillies. Author Peter Pagliaro will discuss his new book, including Hall of Famer Richie Ashburn, Stan Lopata, Granny Hamner, and other stars who took the field for both Utica and Philadelphia during the late 1940s.
