A Tampa Baseball Museum!

As of the 2013 season, more than 80 Major League Baseball players have come from Tampa Bay, making our region arguably one of the best represented in baseball history. In order to preserve and honor this tradition of baseball excellence, the time has come for us to bring a little bit of Cooperstown to Tampa.

This morning, the Ybor City Museum Society launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise the remaining money they need to build the highly anticipated Tampa Baseball Museum at the former home of Al Lopez Sr. You can see the project here: http://www.citizinvestor.com/project/the-tampa-baseball-museum.
