Product Description
Game of My Life: Memorable Stories of Red Sox Baseball traces back nearly 70 years, almost to the very start of the seminal Yawkey Era, recalling some of the greatest players in Red Sox history and some of their greatest games. Beginning with Bobby Doerr, the Hall of Fame second baseman who joined the Red Sox in 1937, this book will touch on players and their most memorable games from every decade right up to those who finally experienced the exhilaration of winning that elusive World Series.

Chaz Scoggins began working at The Lowell Sun in Massachusetts after graduating from the University of Massachusetts-Lowell in 1970 with a history degree. The award-winning writer has been covering the Boston Red Sox for The Sun since 1973. He served 14 years as chairman of the Boston chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America and was national president of the BBWAA in 2000. Scoggins has been the chief official scorer at Fenway Park since 1978 and has been an official scorer at three All-Star games and three World Series. He has also broadcast Lowell Spinners games in the Class-A New York-Penn League on radio from 1997-2002, and began doing so again in 2005. This is his second book.
