Posted By: <b>Jeff O</b><p>I realize I have a biased opinion on Rain Check since I was one of the contributors, but I can tell you that the photos in the book come from the best northwest baseball collection and are fantastic. If you're interested in minor league ball or the PCL you've got to get this book.<br /><br />As an aside, Jim Bouton was an absolutely amazing speaker at the convention in Seattle.<br /><br />Jeff
