MISFITS! Baseball's Worst Ever Team is the tragicomic story of the hapless, hopeless 1899
Cleveland
Spiders. Discover baseball's all-time single season futility leaders and winners of but 20 of 154 games
that
year. Meet some of the most colorful characters ever to wear major league uniforms. Follow their
hysterical
train-travel odyssey through the National League and straight into historical obscurity. So pathetic were
these Spiders that on the season's final day, a cigar store clerk became their starting pitcher. Wondrous
anecdotes abound. Baseball fans will laugh out loud! Book featured in 1999 Cleveland Indians
Yearbook.
Contains illustrations, appendices, sordid statistics, bibliography, and index.
MISFITS! Baseball's Worst Ever Team is also available as an ebook on Amazon.com for the Kindle. J. Thomas Hetrick is also
the
author of the Seymour Medal finalist Chris Von der Ahe and the St. Louis Browns. |
