Live from the Opera House Traverse City

Our guest today, Doug Mirabelli, was a catcher for the Boston Red Sox. He reads us a book about Moe Berg, a Jewish baseball player from the 1930s, who traded in his glove to become a spy during World War II. For our activity, Heidi Kay, a teacher from Eastern Elementary School, visits the Opera House to help us with the Build a Lever Challenge.
