Stange and Amazing Baseball Stories

The book started with a little introdution of how to understand the baseball game. Later we started to read interesting stories like the one about George Herman "Babe" Ruth and his 60 homeruns in one sesson, and the era of 130 stolen bases by Ricky Henderson in 1986, when he was a New York Yankee super-player. This is about how a lot of players were famous. It tells some stories about the best World Series, when the New York Yankees and the Pittsburgh Pirates started one of the most interesting World Series. They played seven games because they had a good season that year. The last game, the Pirates started the first inning going ahead 4-0, then the Yankees tried to win the game but the last inning the Pirates won. I recommended this book because if you like baseball and history, the book has them and if you read the book you are going to know new things.
