The talk will include an overall look at Jewish ballplayers
and those that played or were part of the Cleveland Indians
organization. The inclusion of ballplayers that came from
minority groups faced a difficult time from rival players,
fans and even teammates. Some of those experiences will
be discussed.
The presentation will cover ballplayers like Jonah Goldman,
Cleveland’s first Jewish shortstop, Harry Eisenstat, Al
Rosen and Hank Greenberg, who served as the Indians general
manager starting in 1948, plus others such as Max “Lefty”
Weisman, Indians trainer for twenty-seven years and Max
Rosenblum, the leading supporter of amateur baseball in
Cleveland.
