It's that time of year again! Baseball season, of course, and in particular, time for another 60-year-later look-back at the post-season adventures of the West Covina American Little League All-Stars.
This year's retrospective will be less detailed than last, though. Main reason being, Mother's 1958 baseball scrapbook is incomplete. She evidently used an inferior brand of adhesive/mucilage, which not only visibly stained much of the scrap, its hold is weak, so just in the normal course of handling the album over the years, several clippings describing the earlier games were lost.
Coverage of the 1958 All-Stars will also be shorter due to the simple fact that the team didn't advance as far into the post-season playoffs as it did in 1957.
But there's still a fair share of action and surprises in store! So once more: let's PLAY BALL!
