Batter Up!
Thousands of bats, three home run records and one “curse” have been broken since Ken Burns last explored the history of America’s national pastime with his landmark 1994 PBS series, BASEBALL.
Now, Burns and co-director Lynn Novick update the series with
THE TENTH INNING, airing
September 28-29 on KLRN.
KLRN is pleased to partner with our local minor league baseball team, the San Antonio Missions,
to bring to light personal thoughts and memories about baseball.
Corporate funding for The Tenth Inning is provided by Bank of America. Additional funding is provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the Public Broadcasting Service.
What is on the Jumbotron?
Remember the hot summer days at the ballpark?
The fly ball you caught in the stands? The grand slam that won the game?
A group of five media students from Brackenridge High School, with cameras in tow, descended on a recent San Antonio Missions home game
at Wolff Stadium and captured stories and baseball memories from fans
young and old. KLRN sends a special thank you to the fans who shared their stories and to students Clarissa, Joshua, Sergio, Samuel, and Miguel, and their teacher,
Mr. Blackard, for their help in making this happen!
