Baseball folklore / Josh Nelson, 2003 December

 Item — Box: 271, Folder: 10
Identifier: FA 1 Item 3016

Scope and Contents note

Nelson collects superstitions and rituals from Minor League baseball players and analyzes their importance to the players and the game. He separates these superstitions into three types-physical, religious and idiosyncratic-and finds that each type of ritual helps players to find a rhythm, settle their minds, and ensure their safety. Created by Josh Nelson when he was enrolled in Eric Eliason's English 391 course in Fall 2003.
