The Redheaded Outfield

Light lunch-time reading.
Definitely sports nostalgia (or pre-nostalgia, since it describes a sports world of the 1920s or 1930s), pedestrian, and small-time.
I grew up watching the Pacific Coast League Los Angeles Angels, before the Dodgers moved to town, so, having liked some of Zane Grey's Westerns, I was willing to give this try. The minor leagues in this book are a lot more minor though, being set in smaller towns and sandlots, 20 to 30 years before I was watching the Angels. Not great plots or great sports writing, but a pleasant diversion.
