I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets. -

Women, Baseball & Poetry
Book Notes: Reading in the Time of Coronavirus By Jefferson Scholar-in-Residence Dr. Andrew Roth Women, Baseball & Poetry Ritter, Lawrence S. The Glory of Their Times: The Story of the Early Days of Baseball Told by the Men Who Played It. (New York: The MacMillan Company, 1966). Kahn, Roger. The Boys of Summer. (New York: Harper and Row Publishers, 1972). Thank you! A number of readers said they enjoyed the previous two baseball Book Notes. Last week, we celebrated the Cleveland Indians’ victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers in the 1920 World Series. I was hoping for a 100th anniversary rematch of that 1920 duel. The Dodgers held up their end, but the Tribe, in true Tribe fashion, teased then folded in the playoffs’ first round. So, as the 2020 pandemic-themed World Series, complete with piped in crowd noise and cardboard cut-out fans unfolds, here are a few more baseball poems. Several of them are by women establishing that “fandom” is gender neutral. In one of the earlier baseball Book Notes, I recounted a Cleveland Indians’ executive telling me that women, having played softball, were now among baseball’s most ardent fans. Their attendance having sustained the game, it is not too big a stretch to say it might be women who save baseball from itself. In this Book Notes, we’ll also share some thoughts about the question, “What is the best baseball book ever written?” and take a look into two of my favorite contenders for that honor. First, some baseball poetry beginning with one for my baseball second cousins – Pittsburgh Pirates’ fans. -
