Remembering Jim Brosnan

A former pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs passed away recently without a lot of fanfare.
In his latest edition of Reading Baseball, Pete Peterson tells us how Jim Brosnan's contribution to the game was more in the form of his literary work, than in his achievements on the mound.
 

Reading Baseball is a series of original essays and commentaries by Richard "Pete" Peterson, the author of Pops: The Willie Stargell Story and Growing Up With Clemente.
 

Richard "Pete" Peterson is the creative force behind WSIU Radio's Reading Baseball Series. Pete's original essays and commentaries are a regular staple for any fan of the game.
