Title: Bobby strikes out
Review: There isn't much to this book. Half of it seems to be"Bobby" Parker's irrelevant autobiography. Then you get about ten baseball box scores, right out of the newspapers. The rest of it purports to tell how Jackie Robinson broke into baseball, but I couldn't believe a word of it. Did gangsters really have shootouts in the grandstand? Not likely! And if they did, it would have taken twenty more years before the game became integrated. Robinson was required to avoid confrontations, not to hire hitmen to watch his back.
Is the review positive or negative?
