42-League 42 w/Bob Lutz

We had the incredible opportunity to sit down with local legend, Bob Lutz, to hear a little about his history working for the Wichita Eagle and also his newest project - League 42. Although the league has been around for several years, it is heading in some awesome directions.From the League 42 website:"League 42, named in honor of the great Jackie Robinson, the first African-American in Major League Baseball, is a youth baseball league comprised primarily of urban children ages 5 – 14. McAdams Park at 17th & Wabash (I-135 & 13th Street area) is home to the League and where we play our games. Practices are held at McAdams, too, as well as other baseball fields across the city."League 42 is evolving into much more than a youth baseball league and Bob told us all about that, too. You can find all the information you need at https://league42.org/. There are several ways you can get involved, and a big one being coaching, so if you are ever interested please reach out.Follow/Like Us!Website - https://www.wichitapodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/wichitapodcast/                          https://www.instagram.com/threeyumsix/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/WichitaPodcast                          https://www.facebook.com/threeyumsixTwitter - https://twitter.com/WichitaPodcast                    https://twitter.com/threeyumsixTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@wichitapodcastEmail - [email protected] Podcast Jams - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5-HvQ16Chb5FzfXBeXuOMATheme music by Emily Hahn - @emilyhahnmusic on Instagram.
