- Summary:
- “This issue includes a 20 page biography of Effa Manley, the only woman currently in the baseball Hall of Fame. Effa's story takes us back to the segregated era in baseball, when some of the greatest players ever to participate in the sport were banned from the majors. She's an author, a team manager, and a style icon - you won't want to miss this! This issue also includes an interview with Angeline Protacio, a data scientist who is great at de-mystifying stats, finding great places to eat and rooting for the San Francisco Giants.”--Birdcage Bottom Books website.
