A Look at Rare Baseball Books
Posted By: Dan Bretta
Both books deal with the Nebraska Indian baseball club...the first book details the first three seasons and talks about the trials and tribulations of traveling and meeting up with prejudice. It's a little frustrating because there are relatively few names of any players mentioned. It does mention Sam Crawford playing against the Indians when he was with Wahoo, NE. Wahoo was the first team the NI played against. Crawford was enlisted to pitch for the Indians against the U of Nebraska that same year (1897). Crawford also is mentioned as playing against the NI for Wymore which came as a huge surprise for me as I had never heard that he played for any other Nebraska town other than Wahoo. The second book details the first 10 or 11 seasons once again with very few names of players mentioned.
