Isbn: 9781476664873 - baseball rowdies of the 19th century: brawlers, drinkers, pranksters and cheats in the early days of the major leagues (26 risultati)

Condizione: New.

Paperback. Condizione: New. During the 19th century, baseball was a game with few rules, many rowdy players and just one umpire.

Providing brief bios of dozens of players, managers, umpires and owners, this book chronicles some of the flamboyant, unruly and occasionally criminal behavior of baseball's early years.…
