Did you know that Musial:
• once charged after a beanball pitcher? (page 57)
• was sometimes lifted for pinch hitters?(55)
• was once so nervous in the batter’s box that he swallowed his gum? (13)
• believed that good hitters are born, not made?
• was “relieved” to be drafted into World War II?(83)
• always lost weight in the offseason because of his anxiety about speaking appearances? (132)
• was not above haggling over his salary?
• was almost traded to the Phillies for Robin Roberts? (177)
• had 20-20 vision into his forties? (245)
