It May Seem Strange

It may seem strange that I am reading baseball books in football season, but, after all, it is still baseball season even though I pay no attention to MLB other than check the standings every now and then.

I happened on to the Willie Mays book, and then moved on to Roger Kahn.

I have learned some things.

I know the case for Willie Mays being the best baseball player of all time.

From reading Roger Kahn, I've learned that sportwriting can be literate. It's hard to see that reading sports in the state of Alabama.

I've learned more about baseball in New York City in the 40's & 50's.

And I've learned that sports figures can be just as interesting as people in other professions.
