    Some silly entries but better than expected. Not sure what the writer of the Orioles essay was referring to when noting Eddie Murray’s season long slump in 1983…Steady Eddie hit .306 with 33 hrs and 100+ driven in.

    Like with any collection of writings you have good stories and then you have a few bad stories. In all honesty this book was for the most part good stories and then some great stories! If you are any kind of a baseball fan you to put this in you to read list!
