The Cat tells the story of his incredible journey from a farm in Hertford, North Carolina, to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. After pitching for fifteen years for the Oakland A's and the New York Yankees, he recalls stories and anecdotes from many famous teammates. 24 pages of illustrations.
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.
