Cheney fans 21 in 16 innings.
In 1962, Washington Senator's pitcher Tom Cheney set a major league strike-out record: twenty-one batters in a sixteen inning marathon. These events and much more are collected in a comprehensive and compact compendium, The Best Book of Baseball Facts and Stats.
Information packed, this book records all the important players, teams, games and statistics, and:
- Profiles of more than one hundred current and all-time great players
- Charts the Major League franchises from their beginnings to their current standings
- Details every World Series since 1903 and many other key games
- Highlights the contributions of the best managers and how they shaped the game
- Celebrates the great stadiums like Fenway's Green Monster and Wrigley Field
- Discusses the facts behind the notorious scandals and controversies
- Lists comprehensive statistics for each position: single-game and single-season leaders for both the regular season and championships
- Lists award winners, MVPs, rookies of the year, and Hall of Fame inductees.
Do you know the 1954 American League MVP? Want to read the most famous Yogi-ism? Enjoy reading the extraordinary achievements of the baseball's finest players? The Best Book of Baseball Facts and Stats is the ideal reference for baseball fans of all ages.
