    Baseball Chronicles

    There was a time I never missed one of my favorite teams baseball games.
    I think maybe 25 years ago or so, I kinda lost interest.
    The 1991 and 1992 seasons were my best memories , that's when the BlueJays of Toronto won back to back world Series Championships.

    Baseball has heritage, mostly American but it had trended off into Canadians too
    I can't remember a time without baseball.

    There is a Ken Burns video documentary in a 9 part series (9 innings). That is a great series too, and I owned it in one form or another over these many years.

    There is also a great book (chronicle style).
    Between the two a person could know all there is to know about baseball and maybe a bit more too

    2Oth Century Baseball Chronicle
    A year-by-year History of Major league Baseball


    My family gave me this book maybe 30 years ago. It's been through some times, even had to have it rebound awhile ago. That 'duck' tape does wonders
    By the way, no ducks were harmed or killed in the fixing of that book

    I recommend this Book of Baseball Chronicles to any baseball fan!
    The Ken Burns 9 Inning video series is good too.

    Did you know that in 1902 Nig Clarke went 8-for-8 with 8 HomeRuns !

    The picture is too small to see who it is but I will guess Wells.
