This Book Recreates The Rowdy, Seasonlong 1897 Battle Between The Baltimore Orioles And The Boston Beaneaters. The Orioles Had Acquired A Reputation As The Dirtiest Team In Baseball. Future Hall Of Famers John Mcgraw, Wee Willie Keeler, And Foxy Ned Hanlon Were Proven Winnersbut Their Nasty Tactics Met With Widespread Disapproval Among Fans. So It Was That Their Pennant Race With The Comparatively Saintly Beaneaters Took On A Decidedly Moralistic Air.Bill Felber Brings To Life The Most Intensely Watched Team Sporting Event In The Countrys History To That Time. His Book Captures The Drama Of The Final Week, As The Race Came Down To A Threegame Series. And Finally, It Conveys The Madness Of The Third And Decisive Game, When Thirty Thousand Fans Literally Knocked Down The Gates And Walls Of A Facility Designed To Hold Ten Thousand To Watch The Beaneaters Grind Out A Win And Bring Down Baseballs First And Most Notorious Evil Empire.
