The Spaceman on the Art and Science of Pitching

~Joe Sox~ RSM found this 3 months ago on www.mos.org

*Saturday, August 9 at 1:00 p.m. *
/*The Spaceman on the Art and Science of Pitching*/
with *Bill "Spaceman" Lee*," former Red Sox pitcher (1969-1978), author,
and star of the 2006 documentary film, "Spaceman in Cuba"
Cahners Theater, free with Exhibit Halls admission

Nicknamed the Spaceman for his free-spirited personality, Bill Lee is
one of the best left-handed pitchers ever to don a Boston Red Sox
uniform – and one of the most unforgettable characters ever to play the
game. On November 7, 2008, Lee will be inducted into the Red Sox Hall of
Fame as the team record holder for the most games pitched by a lefty
(321) and as the southpaw with the third-highest win total (94). Since
leaving the major leagues, he has continued playing the game he loves,
traveling in the U.S., Canada, Russia, and Venezuela with amateur and
semi-pro baseball and softball teams. Come hear the always entertaining
Lee talk about pitching mechanics; pitch grips, selection, and sequence;
and the importance of timing, location, control, and mental toughness.

Free seating passes are available to the general public in the Museum
lobby beginning at 11:45 am the day of the program. Seating is limited;
first come, first served.
