The 1975 World Series between the Boston Red Sox and the Cincinnati Reds is generally considered the best of all time, and baseball historians often rank its sixth game as the greatest single game ever played. In this resoundingly acclaimed bestseller, Adelman tells the story of the season that led up to that classic Series and then delivers the inside pitch on those amazing seven games.
