Towards the end of the book Rod talks about the end of his tenure with the Twins and him joining his new team the California…

Babe Ruth was an important figure in the 1920s American History because he was one of the greatest (still…

Derek Jeter is known as one of the greatest major league baseball players ever to step on the field.

There was actually a movie created about Maris’s 1961 milestone, called 61* The three players that have broken Maris’s record were all on the influence and use of anabolic steroids (Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire). Sosa knocked sixty-six home…
