Summary: In Pursuit Of Fun Trivia
Review: There are a number of baseball trivia and quiz books on the market at any given time. Lyons has produced a couple of fun ones: Out Of Left Field and this one (its sequel). The trivia presented here is highly entertaining and interesting to read. What makes their approach a bit different is that they answer questions the average fan wouldn't think of asking but are interesting anyway. For example: Who was the only player to play for the original Washington Senators, the Minnesota Twins, the new Washington Senators, and the Texas Rangers? or Who was the last pitcher to pitch to Mickey Mantle to retire? A lot of thought went into this book and it is fun reading.
