b'1902 Philadelphia Athletics Baseball Team | Library of Congress | Public DomainBen ShibeBy Frank FitzpatrickMar. 27, 2 p.m.(Ashcroft movie theater)Dont recognize the name? He virtually created baseball as we know it, including modern-day stadiums. He was also the sports leading manufacturer, producing every MLB baseball for decades. Bringing him closer to home, this Bala Cynwyd native was an owner and team president of the Philadelphia As from 1901 to 1922. An era when the Athletics won six pennants and three World Series. The ballpark he built in North Philly bore his name until it was renamed in 1950. Today, we can still say he owned the most successful team in our citys history. Part history lesson, part tribute to Americas pastime and one of the sports great innovators, dont miss this fun discussion. For 41 years, Frank turned Philly sports history into literature, along the way being named a Pulitzer Finalist in National Reporting. 46'
