* New book on the Fritz

August 13, 2009

As in Fritz Peterson, the former pitcher for the New York Yankees who caused a major stir back in 1973 when he and teammate Mike Kekich swapped families.

Peterson, who finished an 11-year career with a record of 133-131 (including a 20-win season in 1970), has published his story in Mickey Mantle is Going to Heaven (Outskirts).

His appearances will bring him to the Yogi Berra Museum and Education Center in Little Falls, NJ, on Sept. 17 as well as Fenway, for another Yanks-Sawx series a week later.
