"In this selection of Red's columns - 167 of them, from 1941 to 1981 - baseball fans can recapture some of baseball's greatest moments and most unforgettable characters. Jackie Robinson's debut is here, and so are Hank Greenberg's home runs; Enos Slaughter scoring the winning run from first base on a single in the seventh game of the 1946 World Series; Floyd Bevens losing a World Series no-hitter and the game with two outs in the ninth; Bobby Thomson's famous home run that beat the Dodgers and put the Giants into the World Series.". "Here too are Stan Musial, Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Boudreau, Yogi Berra, Roy Campanella, Gil Hodges, Mickey Mantle; the sly antics of Charles Dillon Stengel; Durocher's lip; Willie Mays and Bill Veeck, and scores of others."--BOOK JACKET.
