Here at Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory, not only do we have historic memorabilia on display and in our collection, but we've also had a terrific relationship with many of the players who’ve set some of the most impressive records in baseball.

Back in 1963 Hispanic names were much more of a rarity on the backs of players’ jerseys, and on October 12, 1963, two teams made of Latino players from the Major Leagues played against each other in what is known as the first and only Hispanic All-Star Game.

90 years have passed since this historical team played, however even today with all the advance scouting, sabermetrics, and statcast analytics it is hard to compare any team to the 1927 Yankees.

It seems like all of Louisville is buzzing with anticipation for the solar eclipse and Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory is no exception!
