"I'll Knock A Homer for You" A Babe Ruth Film Viewing
A Promise. A Legend. A Story That Still Inspires.
In the 1926 World Series, baseball icon Babe Ruth made a heartfelt promise to a sick young boy, Johnny Sylvester—that he would hit a home run just for him. What happened next became one of the most cherished stories in sports history.
Now, experience that powerful moment brought to life through film.
Join us for a special screening of “I’ll Knock a Homer for You”, followed by a discussion with filmmaker Andrew Lilley—Johnny Sylvester’s great-nephew. With passion and storytelling at the heart of his work, Andrew connects audiences to history in a deeply personal and engaging way.
Stay after the film for a conversation with Andrew about the making of the documentary and the legacy behind the legend.
