About

Get ready for an afternoon of baseball, poetry, and the unmistakable swagger of Frank Sinatra, brought to you by the Elysian Fields Chapter of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR).

Start Spreading the Haikus opens with a presentation reflecting on a well-known stadium anthem and shifts to one that explores the art of capturing the game’s fleeting moments in seventeen-syllable snapshots.

Together, the two powerhouse presentations capture the rhythm, emotion, and mythology of America’s pastime. Immerse yourself in the sound and the soul of baseball!
