The ladies are headed to birthplace of the Louisville Slugger bat to see a new exhibit called "Baseball Hotties: Studs We Love." The exhibit features photos and memorabilia showing the sexier side of the national pastime.
The PG-rated show celebrates the boys of summer and spotlights sexy ballplayers beginning with your great-grandma's pinup in pinstripes Mike "King" Kelly — a superstar from the 1800's and considered the sport's first hottie. There is Ted Williams swinging a bat in a skimpy towel decades before Angelina Jolie struck a slit gown pose, Jim Palmer letting it all hang out in his Jockeys and finally to ... you guessed it — Derek Jeter just being The Captain.
An exhibit called "The Field of Dreamboats" featuring Curtis Granderson, Joey Votto, A.J. Piezynski, Josh Hamilton, Andre Ethier and ... you guessed it ...Jeter again — emerging from a corn field in life-size form.
The exhibit traces the origins of baseball studs and even has a Hottie Hall of Fame with three spots available for vistors to nominate. Steroids probably won't keep any of these baseball studs out this HOF and might actually be an asset.
And if the men get bored watching wood spin on a lathe — as a tribute to the area's own Morganna — there is an actual bra worn by "The Kissing Bandit." The buxom blonde who pursued the baseball hotties of a past generation and kissed them on fields all over the country. Who knew that the bra is on loan to the museum by sportscaster fashion plate Craig Sager.
The large turnout of females drawn to the bat-making factory might be due to the baseball stud-muffins on display. But, it might have something to do with the Princess Diana Exhibit also drawing record crowds right across the street at the Frazier.
