Publisher's Synopsis

Those were the days, my friends ... so grab a hot dog and an egg cream, and travel back in time to learn how Babe Ruth won a farting contest, how the first chest protector almost killed Wilbert Robinson, how Leo Durocher rescued the Dodgers from a flaming train wreck, how Jackie Robinson's sore arm landed him in Brooklyn, why the spitball was good for baseball, why Burt Shotton would not wear a uniform, who stole the Kaiser's ashtray, and how the Bums from Flatbush snatched the National League pennant from the St. Louis Cardinals on the last day of the 1949 baseball season...
