Esquire's All-American Game
This is excellent. Some names were spelled wrong in the various newspaper accounts, and it is great to see what the managers had to say. 19 of the 29 players played professionally, including four major leaguers. Billy "Mr. Zero" Pierce was the winning pitcher in the 6-0 game. Ashburn made the last out. Programs for the next two years may be in Cooperstown.
