¡Pleibol! In the Barrios and the Big Leagues / En los barrios y las grandes ligas
February 20 – May 15, 2027
America’s favorite pastime has always been a social and cultural force. Stitching together bat-and-ball games brought to America by immigrants created the foundation of baseball. Soon, Americans traveling abroad and visitors returning home spread their love of the game world wide, particularly to Central America and Asia. Each new fan expanded the culture and identity of the game.
The Sheboygan County Museum is pleased to host ¡Pleibol! In the Barrios and the Big Leagues / En los barrios y las grandes ligas, a Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition. From youth and community teams to the Major League, the bilingual exhibition reveals how generations of Latinas/os helped make baseball the game it is today. Baseball is a game of dreams, community, and shared experience. Baseball in Sheboygan County is no different, with stories of adversity, triumph, famous players, and love of the game.
These inspirational stories reflect larger themes that connect us all, on and off the diamond. Step up to the plate and catch rich baseball history at the Museum.

El pasatiempo favorito de Estados Unidos siempre ha sido un poder social y cultural. La vinculacion de los juegos de bate y pelota traídos a Estados Unidos por los inmigrantes sentó las bases del béisbol. Pronto, los estadounidenses que viajaban al extranjero y los visitantes que regresaban a casa difundieron su amor por el juego por todo el mundo, especialmente en Centroamérica y Asia. Cada nuevo aficionado propagó la cultura y la identidad del juego.
El Museo del Condado de Sheboygan se complace en presentar ¡Pleibol! En los barrios y las grandes ligas, en la exhibición móbil del Servicio de exposiciones itinerantes de la institución Smithsonian. Desde equipos juveniles y comunitarios hasta las Grandes Ligas, esta exposición bilingüe revela cómo generaciones de latinos y latinas ayudaron a hacer del béisbol el juego que es hoy. El béisbol es un juego de sueños, comunidad y experiencias compartidas. El béisbol en el Condado de Sheboygan no es diferente, con historias de adversidad, triunfo, jugadores famosos y amor por el juego.
