Braille and Major League Baseball, The Baltimore Orioles:

Tuesday, September 18, is National Federation of the Blind Night at Oriole 
Park at Camden Yards. The jerseys will have “Orioles” and the players’ names 
in Braille, we will be handing out Braille alphabet cards, and President 
mark Riccobono will be throwing out the first pitch. We have invited many of 
our partners to join us at the game. Below are two articles about the event.
