For more than 30 years, Baseball Hall of Famer Ferguson Jenkins has been grateful for his annual summer visits to Cooperstown, N.Y.

“I look forward to coming back,” Jenkins told The Epoch Times on Tuesday during a phone conversation from his home in Frisco, Texas. “It’s important for me to see the fellas who I played with and against who were the nucleus of the game.”
