About this title

Synopsis

The original Wilmington Blue Rocks joined the Class B Interstate League in 1940 and became its most successful franchise. Forty years after the demise of the original team, a new Blue Rocks club emerged to become one of the most successful teams in organized baseball in the 1990's. Author Elbert Chance recalls the humor, hits and heartaches of the teams and individual stars who played important roles in the sports history of Delaware and the nation.
