Seattle’s Beep Baseball Team on TV

 

The Seattle Sluggers, a beep baseball team, started playing last year. One of the local TV stations just ran a story on the team. I thought the reporter did a good job at explaining the sport and not making people who are blind sound either helpless or like super freaks, the two ends of the spectrum that can often happen with this kind of story. I am part of the team and find it a nice change from the world of computer accessibility.

 

The story is at http://www.king5.com/on-tv/evening-magazine/A-Ball-And-A-Bat-And-A-Blindfold-Equals-A-Challenging-Dare-Dever-261174181.html. The direct link to the video is http://www.king5.com/video?id=261174181&sec=583387&ref=rcvidmod. You can learn more about the sport of beep baseball on the National Beep Baseball Association’s home page.
