MCU Park, home of the Class A Brooklyn Cyclones (NY Mets), has a wonderful bronze statue of Pee Wee Reese with his arm around Jackie Robinson's shoulder. I don't have a picture of it but maybe someone else does. I make sure to pass it every time I go to a Cyclone's game.

I got these off the internet. A great statue.

As a side note; When MCU Park first opened it was called Keyspan Park and had a mini museum dedicated to Brooklyn baseball (mostly the Brooklyn Dodgers).
I can't seem to find any more information on it, so I'm guessing that it closed.
Does anyone know anything about it?

The in-motion statues at Nationals Park are absolutely horrendous. A real disservice to Walter Johnson, Josh Gibson, and Frank Howard. So terrible that they were relocated from the outfield plaza to a less prominent spot.

Frank won't say a bad word about anyone or anything, but as a close personal friend of his, he does shake his head about this.

That's awesome that you really like that sculpture. His name is Kevin Malko and we grew up across the street from each other in Jersey. I'm jealous of him for making a living with his art. He's very talented though so he deserves all his success.

This is the Road to Omaha statue outside T D Ameritrade Park in Omaha. It was done by John Labja, a local artist. It was originally in front of Rosenblatt. A smaller version is given the the most valuable player in the CWS.
I have known John for a lot of years. He also does the Harley Earl replica for the Daytona 500 champion and did the Dale Earnhardt statue outside the race track.
