Eagles Nest
In Kansas City, the local American Legion post barred Mexican American GIs returning from World War II from joining the veterans' group. In response, they made their own Post #213, called the Eagles Nest, which included a baseball field.
In 2016, seeing the beloved Eagles Nest baseball field falling into disrepair, Chris González spearheaded a revitalization that served as a testament to the Post #213's legacy and the power of baseball in a local community. |
