Blockade Billy
  Blockade Billy

Synopsis:

William "Blockade Billy" Blakely may have been the greatest baseball player the game has ever seen, but today no one remembers his name. He was the first--and only--player to have his existence completely removed from the record books. Every effort was made to erase any evidence William Blakely played professional baseball, and with good reason. Blockade Billy had a secret darker than any pill or injection that might cause a scandal in sports today. His secret was much, much worse.

Being Australian, I didn't understand a lot of what was said about the games... but that didn't get in the way of me loving the story.

Took me back to my childhood summers of the 60's, playing shortstop, when the ball flew where your eye focused. The best book about the sport that I have ever read; true to form and a real treat for those who really love the game. I gulped this in an afternoon like lemonade on a hot summer day. Thanks for writing it!
