      February 1, 2006
      The first biography of the gifted centerfielder (1938 -1997) who challenged the reserve clause by which a team's right to a player was automatically extended in perpetuity. Belth, a Yankees blog host, traces Flood's rough childhood and the racism that he experienced on and off the field. When, after 12 years with the St. Louis Cardinals, with multiple Gold Gloves and All-Star appearances, Flood refused to accept a trade to the Phillies, he blazed a path for free agency but sacrificed his career. A fine read on a pioneer in baseball and African American history. For collections in both areas.
