Bauer, a history professor at FVCC, recently published two books about baseball history: “Outside the Lines of Gilded Age Baseball: Gambling, Umpires & Racism in 1880s Baseball” and “Outside the Lines of Gilded Age Baseball: Alcohol, Fitness, and Cheating in 1880s Baseball.” In addition to reading passages, he will discuss the research and writing of the two books.
