The 1957 San Francisco Seals

End of an Era in the Pacific Coast League

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Readers experience minor league baseball as it was over fifty years ago when there were no agents, contract was based on this year's performance, and PCL teams consisted of a blend of major league veterans and minor leaguers on the cusp. The Pacific Coast League no ordinary league, the Seals no ordinary team, and 1957 no ordinary season"--Provided by publisher.
