Tweets on first Jewish pitching matchup since 1977

There is more to Jewish representation in baseball than Hank Greenberg and Sandy Koufax. Still, this hasn’t happened often.

Tonight’s Braves/Orioles pitching matchup is a historic one. 🇮🇱

Max Fried vs Dean Kremer

Per @JewishBBMuseum, it is the 5th time two Jewish starting pitchers have faced off in MLB history. It is the first time since 1977. pic.twitter.com/qSjIr8Ddda
