Recalling some of the greatest players in Red Sox history and some of
their greatest games, author Chaz Scoggins traces back over 70 years, to
the very start of the seminal Yawkey era, in Game of My Life Boston Red
Sox. Beginning with Bobby Doerr, the Hall of Fame second baseman who
joined the team in 1937, the book touches on players and their most
memorable games from every decade, right up to those who finally
experienced the exhilaration of winning that elusive World Series in
2004. Among the many players who recount the most memorable games in
their Red Sox careers are Johnny Pesky, Dominic DiMaggio, Mel Parnell,
Frank Malzone, Bill Monbouquette, Rico Petrocelli, Fred Lynn, Butch
Hobson, and Bruce Hurst. Their recollections and stories linking eight
decades of Boston Red Sox baseball and revealing many details unknown
until now will undoubtedly awaken fond but probably long-forgotten
memories of lifelong Boston fans themselves.
