Baseball History Mural in Philly

I love it when communities embrace their baseball heritage. In Philadelphia, a baseball history mural is going to be painted on the side of a new urban youth academy building. Take a look at the mural, created by artist Mark Stockton:

According to the Passyunk Post blog (www.passyunkpost.com): "The portraits will be selected based on the level of connection to baseball, art and civic history in Philadelphia. The mural will primarily be broken into a color scheme of red, blue, green and yellow. The images represented in yellow will show the African Americans involved with the Negro leagues, blue will represent youth baseball, red will show Philadelphia baseball players and green will represent the creative and civic leaders with some connection to the sport."
