Negro Leagues Baseball Museum

Twelve life-sized bronze sculptures of players – 11 of whom were inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame – populate an indoor baseball diamond at this unusual museum. A must-see for serious baseball fans, the museum tracks a remarkable chapter of American sports through film, baseball equipment and other memorabilia. Computers display 3-D information regarding league history and players, and provide opportunities to try out trivia games or learn basic baseball techniques. "Bat" from inside a 44-foot-wide batting cage, with a virtual umpire, against video images of major-league pitchers, and then learn how far your hit has traveled. The museum store features an enormous array of books and videos about the sport, and one-of-a-kind gifts from caps/hats to pennants or baseball cards.
