Martha & Nick report from their visit to the National Beep Baseball Association's World Series in St Louis this past July.

The National Beep Baseball Association is an organization committed to fostering competition and camaraderie through the game of beep baseball for the blind and visually impaired.

There are two conventional ways to enjoy baseball: As a fan or as a player. Only a small percentage of players actually make it into the major leagues. But thousands of people, at varying degrees of success and levels, joyously charge out to their positions on fields and sand lots to the cry of “play ball.” Nearly forty years ago that privilege was not an option for persons who lacked sufficient vision to play the game.
