An Inclusive Litany

6/1/93

In 1993, the Department of Labor warned the Savannah Cardinals baseball team that it must fire fourteen-year-old batboy Tommy McCoy because he could not work after 7:00 P.M. while school was in session, or after 9:00 P.M. during the summer. The team's fans were outraged and announced plans for a "Save Tommy's Job" night.
