Mets or Royals? United or City? How Music Ties Fans to Teams and Players

10/25/15

Contributed by Timothy Johnson

On the eve of the baseball World Series and the day after the Manchester derby in football (soccer), you are invited to a lecture that explores why soccer fans sing and why baseball players select music to play as they approach home plate or the pitcher’s mound.
