This piece on a man who makes baseball bats by hand is not the usual sort of story we do at the New York Reporting Project. It’s not about an issue of public importance–no wood v. metal angle here—and it was produced as a student project in class. But it’s just such a fun little piece we wanted more people to see it. Plus it’s about baseball, and after all we’re only an hour from Cooperstown! Utica’s ABC affiliate TV station WUTR aired this piece – by graduating senior Ted Krueger – on May 29, 2012.
