Description

Donald Dewey (au); Nicholas Acocella (au). In this book, the story of our national pastime unfolds through lively accounts of each of the 123 franchises that comprised the 6 leagues officially recognized by Major League Baseball (MLB). Here are the fascinating details of the team owners & managers, the most dramatic events on & off the field, the most famous players, & the pivotal moments in the history of each team. From the club owner who helped bring down a White House administration to the absent-minded outfielder who habitually ran off the field after only two outs, the book offers a historically significant & entertaining narrative of MLB. Includes appealing anecdotal sidebars, black & white photos, & frequent humorous touches.
