Lefty O’Doul by Dennis Snelling

Joint review in the San Francisco Chronicle: 

“Die-hard fans might find a happy distraction, however, in two impressive new books about San Francisco baseball. One charts the glorious — and not-so-glorious — history of the Giants; the other focuses on one of the city’s true stars.”
