Rating:  Summary: Wonderful look back at Bay Area baseball history! Review: This book is an excellent look back at over 100 years of San Francisco bay Area baseball. Starting off with the first sandlot and then professional teams, it goes on to describe the histories of the SF Seals and Oakland Oaks (along with some of their players), and some history of the PCL. It also talks about the Giants and A's moves to the Bay Area and gives a history of those teams through the 1993 season. The book is full of pictures of players and memorabilia and the back of the book lists the records and all-time stats for the Seals, Oaks, Giants and A's. Well worth the money. The authors did an wonderful job writing this history.
