Summary: Absolutely a must for any baseball fan!
Comment: I have had this book since 1990. In the last 7 years, I have been able to visually recreate almost any series game. This is a valuable tool in my baseball library. If you are lucky enough to find one, buy it!

Summary: Unique in-depth account of every Series game -- essential
Comment: First published following the brilliant Reds-Red Sox Series of 1975, this book gives the play-by-play for every game of every World Series it covers. By elevating these games to such minute study, serious baseball fans can deconstruct strategies and performances for observations useful in many other contexts.

The Neft-Cohen team also puts together "Sports Encyclopedia: Baseball," which (with the Macmillan and Total Baseball series) is a cornerstone of baseball analysis. The only improvements that could be made: -- More pitch counts, for the recent Series for which these are available. -- Play-by-play for old League tie-breaking playoffs (NL 46, 59 and 62; AL 48; AL East 78; NL West 80).

For anyone who enjoys APBA and its recreating of old World Series, this is a must.
