When the 1949–1953 New York Yankees won an astounding five
consecutive World Series, they did it without the offensive
firepower that characterized so many of their championship teams
before and after. The franchise came to rely instead on three aging
pitchers, an unlikely trio that won 255 games during the five-year
championship run. This book focuses on the close relationship and
quiet achievement of Allie Reynolds, Vic Raschi and Eddie Lopat.
Soon after Robinson and the cross-town Dodgers had publicly
confronted the issues of race and ethnicity, these men from very
different backgrounds—Creek Indian, Italian and
Polish—established a deep communion with each other, became
lifelong friends, and over a handful of years re-wrote baseball
history.
