Go on a road trip through Cleveland baseball history with Martin Gitlin, sportswriter and author of The Ultimate Cleveland Indians Time Machine Book. The evening covers it all, from the fascinating 1899 Spiders--whose 20-134 record remains the worst in major league history--to the brilliance of Bob Feller and the 1948 championship team to the miseries of the 1960s to the pennant winners of the 1990s and 2016 to the death of Chief Wahoo and the team nickname. There will also be head-scratching trivia and videos and photographs of the greatest and most fascinating players, teams, and moments in franchise history. Plus, Mr. Gitlin will field questions and sell and sign copies of his book. Call 330-545-2508 to sign up
