The Midsummer Classic - The Complete History of Baseball's All-Star Game
by Vincent, Spatz, and Smith
- - - everything you ever wanted to know is in here. I just broke it open, landed on the '79 game, and was flooded with memories - - Parker's throws, Mazzilli's HR. Templeton's "If I ain't startin', I ain't departin'."
Not only does it big back everything on every game - - to the smallest detail; but, it has some incredible lists as well. Like players who replaced players........for example:
