Remembering Baseball

This book details facts you never knew about baseball, including why they kept a bucket with an iced head of cabbage in the dugout on hot summer days. A 94 year old baseball fan recalls memories of the game through 81 years of enjoying the sport. With histories of players, announcers, and managers, the author, loving poetry, transforms baseball particulars into rhyme without reason, both real and with humor, staking license to consider what Abner Doubleday and devoted fans might have thought of the long baseball strike of 1995. The ballpark is described and the author precasts an old-fashioned, gone wild “it never happened” baseball brouhaha, plus the probable thoughts of both the batter and the fan as a homer sails into the bleachers.You will want peanuts and popcorn while you read this book!
