Summary

"In this blend of baseball and cultural history, Marshall Garvey explores the 1985 World Series between the Kansas City Royals and St. Louis Cardinals, an event that has gone largely overlooked aside from the enduring notoriety of umpire Don Denkinger's infamous missed call in Game 6. In Interstate '85, Garvey goes well beyond "the Call" to examine the on-field action and gripping stories of the players and others who took part in the Series. Perhaps best of all, this exciting new volume features 27 new interviews that Garvey conducted with key figures, including George Brett, Ozzie Smith, Don Denkinger, Bud Black, Andy Van Slyke, Ricky Horton, and Mark Gubicza. More than a piece of baseball lore, Interstate '85 paints a compelling portrait of the two teams' home cities, the spectacle that the "Show-Me Series" created throughout Missouri, and the individual and collective roads traveled by the players throughout their lives, during and long after 1985's Fall Classic. In short, Garvey's work is sports writing at its most profound and captivating"-- Provided by publisher.
