Her name was Jackie Mitchell-"organized baseball's first girl pitcher." On September 9, 1965, Sandy Koufax made baseball history by pitching his fourth perfect game. In July 1970, a stripper rushed onto the field at Riverfront Stadium to kiss Johnny Bench, temporarily disrupting a game attended by President Nixon and his family. These are just some of the great, quirky, and comic moments in the annals of baseball recorded in The Greatest Baseball Stories Ever Told. Here also are profiles of such legendary figures as Joe DiMaggio, Pete Rose, and Yogi Berra, essays that explore the complexities and pleasures of the game, even an excerpt from the movie Bull Durham. This is the perfect book for anyone who has ever played so much as a game of catch. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Baseball stories. 650 0 $a Baseball $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Baseball players. 700 1 $a Silverman, Jeff, $d 1950- 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/11793099 $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ttm_9781515996163_180.jpeg 941 $a 2 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20171128011536.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20170502011613.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E3E1CC042EFC11E7A97D5AD2DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
