Description

Just when you think you've heard them all, the Red Sox yarns keep unraveling. It's predecessor, Tales from the Red Sox Dugout, told some of the classic stories about the Boston Red Sox and their colorful, eccentric history. It struck a chord with Red Sox fans, who demanded More Tales from the Red Sox Dugout: Yarns of the Sox. This new title picks up the thread where the original left off, and takes the Red Sox fans on an even greater ride through Red Sox lore. In addition to new tales that have been uncovered since the publication of the original book, More Tales from the Red Sox Dugout includes fun lists of player nicknames, one-game wonders, intriguing pitcher-catcher batteries, and the story of a fictional pitcher from a little bar where everyone knows his name. The Red Sox yarns are endless. Some are intended to keep you in stitches, while others will keep you warm on those nights when it's too cold to play baseball. But always, More Tales from the Red Sox Dugout: Yarns from the Sox will entertain everyone who belongs to the special club of Boston Red Sox fans.
