The Durham Bulls Baseball Club and Durham's downtown post office will dedicate a new commemorative first-class postal stamp this month in honor of America's favorite pastime.
Special guests at the dedication on Aug. 28 include acting Durham Postmaster Tom Pollard, Bulls mascot Wool E. Bull, Bulls Vice President George Habel and Clay Council, a 71-year old All-Star Home Run Derby batting practice pitcher.
Council recently pitched in the All-Star Home Run Derby, throwing to Josh Hamilton, a Texas Ranger outfielder and record-setting home run hitter in the competition.
