After a late night Amazon binge, I happily ended up buying this trio of baseball books...

Just started the first one and the author opens the book in fine fashion by discussing the 'new' designated hitter rule and how a misplayed ball by Reggie Smith prolonged the top of the first inning, allowing Ron Blomberg to famously become the major's first ever DH, instead of Orlando Cepeda for the Sox. So far so good!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
