This compendium of stories is sure to delight the baseball fan in any house (even if they're not rooting for the Yankees)! Some of the stories were laugh-out-loud funny. A great gift idea.

This review is from: Tales from the Yankee Dugout: A Collection of the Greatest Yankee Stories ever Told (Paperback)

These are decent stories, generally a paragraph or two per subject and several pages per person (see the Table of Contents online). Most of them are entertaining and make for quick reading when convenient.
