Happy Birthday to Ron LeFlore

Wow, and I just started following LeVar Burton on Twitter. This is quite a coincidence.

Growing up a read a bunch of books that were mostly just collections of baseball anecdotes, stuff like "The Umpire Strikes Back", Joe Gariagiola's book(s), "Ball Four", "Seasons in Hell." Can anybody recommend other books like these? I should read "Glory of Their Times", too

Golfing, try to get Dick Bartell's book Rowdy Richard. It's a sort of memoir, but it's really basically a bunch of stories that Bartell recalled in his old age, strung together loosely. Very interesting stuff.
