Rick Vaughn knows baseball up and down, inside out. He was a pitcher at George Mason University and on the ground floor leading the Tampa Bay Rays’ communications department before the team’s first game ever.
He most recently skippered former Rays Manager Joe Maddon’s Respect 90 Foundation as Executive Director and in 2022 released the book “100 Years of Baseball on St. Petersburg’s Waterfront – How the Game Helped Shape a City.”
This weekend, he’s at the Tampa Baseball Museum to sign copies of his latest work, “Tampa Spring Training Tales: Major League Memories” (his connections to the Grapefruit League go back to ‘85 when he landed at Al Lang while working for the Orioles). The book includes stories about the 1913 Chicago Cubs and is perfect for baseball nerds who love digesting nuggets of insider information about the game.
There’s no cover for the “Tampa Spring Training Tales: Major League Memories” book signing happening Saturday, April 20 at the Tampa Baseball Museum in Ybor City. Subscribe to Creative Loafing newsletters.
