The 1954 Cleveland Indians were one of the most remarkable baseball
teams of all time. Their record for most wins (111) fell only when
the baseball schedule expanded, and their winning percentage, an
astounding .721, is still unsurpassed in the American League.
Though the season ended with a heartbreaking loss to the New York
Giants in the World Series, the 1954 team remains a favorite among
Cleveland fans and beyond. Pitching to the Pennant commemorates the
'54 Indians with a biographical sketch of the entire team, from the
"Big Three" pitching staff (Mike Garcia and future Hall of Famers
Bob Lemon and Early Wynn), through notable players such as Bobby
Avila, Bob Feller, Larry Doby, and Al Rosen, to manager Al Lopez,
his coaches, and the Indians' broadcast team. There are also
stories about Cleveland Stadium and the 1954 All-Star Game (which
the team hosted), as well as a season timeline and a firsthand
account of Game One of the World Series at the Polo Grounds.
Pitching to the Pennant features the superb writing and research of
members of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR),
making this book a must for all Indians fans and baseball
aficionados.
