Summary
"Covers all of what might be called the cultural aspects of baseball (as opposed to the statistical). Advertising, agents, drafts, food, illegal substances, minor leagues, oldest players, perfect games, retired uniform numbers, superstitions and tripleheaders are among the thousands of entries. Biographical sketches of all Hall of Fame players, owners, executives and umpires, and many sportswriters and broadcasters join entries for team histories, ballparks, owners, commissioners and league presidents."--P. [4] of cover
