Port Orange Resident is a Part of Baseball History
Port Orange, Fla. – On a warm June 2022 day, 86-year-old Fred Beneby walked onto a baseball field – something he did quite frequently when he was a bit younger as a right fielder in the Amateur Negro League.
Now, as a resident in Seagrass Village of Port Orange, Fred doesn’t play ball anymore, but the love of the all-American game is as much a part of him today as it was more than 70 years ago.
