CATFISH CAUGHT ME HOOK LINE AND SINKER

THIS IS A VERY GOOD BOOK, WRITTEN BY ONE OF THE BEST PITCHERS IN THE 1970'S. CATFISH TELLS OF HIS DAYS AS A CHILD AND THRU TO HIS DAYS AS A YANKEE. HIS STORIES OF THE A'S AND THE BRONX ZOO ARE THE HIGH LIGHT OF THIS BOOK. I THINK HE WAS A VERY DOWN TO EARTH AND HUMBLE PERSON. I WAS VERY SADDENDED BY HIS RECENT DEATH. I RECOMMEND THIS FOR ALL BASEBALL FANS. WELL WORTH IT.
