October Meeting Announcement

The next meeting of the Rogers Hornsby Chapter of SABR will be on Saturday, Oct. 10 at the home of Gilbert and Raeanne Martinez.

We’ll watch both National League Division Series games that day (the only two scheduled for that day).

This will be an open house of sorts — feel free to arrive an hour before the first pitch of the first game (MLB has not yet announced the start times for these games, but I anticipate a late afternoon start for the first game).

Gilbert will grill burgers, so if you’d like to bring side dishes, appetizers, snacks, beverages or the like, feel free.

Everyone is welcome to stay as long as they’d like.

As soon as MLB announces start times for the games, I’ll send out another reminder.

For directions and more information, please contact Gilbert at gmartinez46 AT austin.rr.com.
