This book is a collection of anecdotes about sports and especially about baseball. A Sample: For a while, black major league baseball players ate in their rooms rather than in the dining rooms of the hotels they stayed in-even when the hotels were located in the northern states. Jackie Robinson decided one day that he and his wife would eat in the dining room of the Netherlands-Plaza Hotel in Cincinnati, Ohio. He and his wife walked into the dining room, and the maitre'd seated them, and then he left for a short time. The maitre'd came back with a baseball and a pen, and he told Mr. Robinson that he had been waiting all season for him to come to the dining room so he could ask for his autograph.
