The World Series: The Great Contests

Rating:
Summary: It was a very good book.
Review: This book is all about the best World Series in baseball history. This book is a non-fiction and is written by Richard J. Brenner. One of the stories is on the 1975 World Series between the Cincinnati Reds and the Boston Red Sox. This is a series that few baseball fans will ever forget. After five grueling games the Reds had a 3-2 advantage going into Boston. In game six the Reds took an early leaad that lasted until the eigth when Boston got a 3-run homer. Now the game was tied. The game went to the 12th inning when Carlton Fisk hit the first pitch downt the left field line. If it was fair the Red Sox would wint the game and force a game seven. As the ball went down the line, Fisk started to jump up and down and motioned the ball to go fair. Sure enough the ball stayed fair and the Red Sox forced a game seven. This book was very good. I would recomend this book to any baseball fan. This book has stories of things that a baseball fan should know. The thing that I really enjoyed about this book was the way it was written. I was always at the end of my chair wondering who or what would happen next. Baseball is a very unpredictable game. In this book, you will find out how thrue that statement is.
