Baseball at its best is a combination of chess match and
gladiatorial combat, waged over a long season but turning on
split-second decisions and physical instincts. The 1916 season
encompassed the drama that made the sport the national pastime:
tight pennant races, multiple contenders, record-breaking
performances, and controversy, both on and off the field. Nine of
the 14 teams battled for first place, four pitchers started and won
both games of a doubleheader, Babe Ruth pitched on Opening Day, and
players from the Federal League became the sport's first free
agents. This book features full rosters, player biographies,
statistics, photographs and an appendix of the sportswriters who
chronicled the season.
