Who's on Third? The Chicago White Sox Story

Dust jacket notes: "A maverick founder, hitless wonders, baseball's greatest scandal, Bill Veeck and his exploding scoreboard, a go-go pennant, failure, rebuilding, and the never-ending search for the answer to the question 'Who's on 3rd?' It's all here in this lively and informative history of the Chicago White Sox. Rich Lindberg traces the stormy, sometimes madcap, history of the White Sox with a wit and perseverance that makes this book must reading for any baseball fan. Here are all the glory days when the Sox assembled one of the greatest teams in baseball only to suffer the disgrace of the Black Sox sellout. The long years until the pennant of 1959 were redeemed by characters like Smead Jolly, Zeke Bonura, Art 'The Great' Shire, Billy Pierce, Minnie Minoso, Jim Rivera, the feuding Comiskeys, and any number of second-rate third basemen. Filled with the great days, the great people and plays from the 1900s to the 1980s, Who's on 3rd? is the most comprehensive coverage of the Sox ever published. With lots of photos, statistics galore, player index, and a special chapter on great games to remember (and forget), this is a treasury of all the moments and miracles on 35th & Shields."
