Join us for 2025 SABR Day on Saturday, February 1
Join us on Saturday, February 1, 2025, for our annual SABR Day celebration! SABR Day is a way for all baseball fans to come together, regardless of where they live, and talk about the game we all love.
SABR Day events will include an All-Star lineup of guest speakers, including Andrew Golden of the Washington Post; FanGraphs founder Dave Appelman; Daniel Piazza of the Smithsonian National Postal Museum; Cleveland Guardians broadcaster Matt Underwood and Guardians Director of Amateur Scouting Ethan Purser; MLB team social media managers Remle Herzberg and Aaron Peralta; filmmaker Jon Leonoudakis; and many award-winning authors and presenters elsewhere.
In Florida, the Roush-Lopez Gulf Coast Chapter has organized a special trolley tour of spring training baseball locations, in coordination with the St. Petersburg Museum of History. In addition, this tour will be going on weekly (Saturdays) for the month of March during spring training and is open to all baseball fans.
Over in Vero Beach, the Central Florida Chapter will host a meeting during the all-day Andre Dawson Classic, a college baseball tournament at the Jackie Robinson Training Complex. We’ll hear from Carlis Robinson, daughter of Johnny Wright, Jackie Robinson’s Dodgers teammate in re-integrating baseball with the Montreal Royals in 1946. We hope to have remarks from Hall of Famer Andre Dawson as well.
