During the summer of 1941, the entire country had turned their attention to America's national pastime. JOE DiMAGGIO of the New York Yankees was on his way to hitting in fifty-six straight games, TED WILLIAMS of the Boston Red Sox was working toward finishing the season with a batting average over .400. What's just as impressive is that both players' records ate still standing today!
Phil Bildner mixes fun baseball facts and statistics with exciting scenes pulled straight from history in this celebration of two of baseball's greatest players to ever reach the top of the record books.
Step up to the plate with these Baseball Hall of Famers and witness the incredible record-breaking 1941 season!
