From the Spokesman-Review, “[I]n his recent book titled “Before They Wore Dodger Blue,” Port Townsend, Washington, baseball historian Eric Vickrey concludes that the [1970 Spokane Indians] was the sport’s best one-team draft class that brought this city another championship. Here’s another Dodgers-centric piece: From Ballparkdigest.com, “We’re proud to announce Steve Dittmore’s Jim Gilliam: The Forgotten Dodger won […]
