Ultimate Cleveland Indians Time Machine Book
Ebook (EPUB Format)
As the anchor titles in a new Time Machine Lyons Press baseball series, The Ultimate Cleveland Indians Time Machine presents a timeline format that not only includes the Indians' greatest moments-including World Series appearances and individual achievements-but would focus also on some very unusual seasons and events, such as the team's 20-134 season of 1899 (the absolute worst in baseball history), the Crybabies of 1940 (who received this nickname after complaining about their manager to such as extent that fans even turned on them), or the infamous Ten Cent Beer Night of 1974 (when thousands of drunken fans stormed the field and forced the…

As the anchor titles in a new Time Machine Lyons Press baseball series, The Ultimate Cleveland Indians Time Machine presents a timeline format that not only includes the Indians' greatest moments-including World Series appearances and individual achievements-but would focus also on some very unusual seasons and events, such as the team's 20-134 season of 1899 (the absolute worst in baseball history), the Crybabies of 1940 (who received this nickname after complaining about their manager to such as extent that fans even turned on them), or the infamous Ten Cent Beer Night of 1974 (when thousands of drunken fans stormed the field and forced the team to forfeit). Of course there are other events to recall, like 17-year-old Bob Feller making his debut and striking out 17 batters in 1936, or Albert Belle famously pointing at his muscle after a playoff opponent claimed (rightly) that he had corked his bat and one of his teammates sneaked into the umpire's room to steal it back so the umps could not find out that it was corked. There are dozens of impressive, wild, wacky and wonderful stories over the years regarding Indians history and Gitlin is the perfect person to write it with his trademark humor and thorough knowledge of Indians lore.
