Review - Red Smith on Baseball

A few were amusing or interesting. It was very hard to follow game descriptions unless I knew what team each mentioned player played for. Heavily slanted toward the Dodgers, Yankees and Red Sox, of course. I quickly jumped ahead to the 1960s when I was more familiar with players, teams and events and it was more interesting. I then went back and picked a handful here and there to read from the older ones.
