In The Stars Are Back, Jerome M. Mileur offers a fascinating account of this storied season and of the backstage battle that would forever transform the game of professional baseball. Mileur begins with one of the most famous clashes in major league history: the neck-and-neck race to the National League pennant between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Brooklyn Dodgers. As these two iconic teams engaged in a bitter struggle leading to the first-ever playoff. 000470772 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000470772 650_0 $$aBaseball$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000470772 650_0 $$aBaseball$$xSocial aspects$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000470772 650_0 $$aBaseball players$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000470772 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000470772 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMileur, Jerome M.$$tStars are back.$$dCarbondale : Southern Illinois University Press, [2014]$$z9780809332717$$w(DLC) 2013005376$$z(OCoLC)840937600 000470772 8520_ $$bacq 000470772 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000470772 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1402890$$zOnline Access 000470772 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:470772$$pGLOBAL_SET 000470772 980__ $$aEBOOK 000470772 980__ $$aBIB 000470772 982__ $$aEbook 000470772 983__ $$aOnline
