Step up to the plate this April as we get back to in-person deTours by exploring the historic cabin of Albert Benjamin “Happy” Chandler—two-time Kentucky governor, U.S. senator, and legendary Baseball Hall of Fame commissioner.

Chandler’s leadership in Major League Baseball helped shape the sport’s history, most notably through his groundbreaking support of Jackie Robinson’s integration into the major leagues in 1947, breaking baseball’s color barrier. Join us for this exclusive deTour as we delve into his lasting impact on both sports and politics.
