Ryan's Entry #2

I've been reading about Biddy Owens who worked Birmingham black Barons during 1948 when there was a lot of segregation going on. Its a pretty good book so far. Im not really a baseball guy so I cant really relate to the book in ANY way but its a pretty good book about baseball during Jackie Robinson's time. This book is good because it like makes you wanna play baseball even though you dont play it. The journal of Biddy owens likes tells almost everything exciting detail about a game so it makes you really want to play baseball. The Barons play in a Negro league cause they separated whites from black leagues until Jackie Robinson came around but theres still segregation. The Barons travel all across the country which I think is a really cool expierience because they get to see all of the awesome sites around the country. Its really cool hearing about their story because all of them are really close to each other. They are all like brothers which really helps them in a game. Their an undefeated team right now which is really good. So yea this is about how much stuff I read so far so i'll write more when i read rest of the book. So see yea.
