2018 SABR Baseball Research Award Winner Baseball in the 1920s is most known for Babe Ruth and the New York Yankees, but there was another great Yankee player in that era whose compelling story remains untold. Urban Shocker was a fiercely competitive and colorful pitcher, a spitballer who had many famous battles with Babe Ruth before returning to the Yankees. Shocker was traded away to the St. Louis Browns in 1918 by Yankees manager Miller Huggins, a trade Huggins always regretted. In 1925, after four straight seasons with at least twenty wins with the hapless Browns, Shocker became the only player Huggins brought back to the Yankees. He finally reached the World Series, with the 1926 Yankees. In the Yankees' storied 1927 season, widely viewed to be the best in MLB history, Shocker pitched with guts and guile, finishing with a record of 18-6 even while his fastball and physical skills were deserting him. Hardly anyone knew that Shocker was suffering from an incurable heart disease that left him able to sleep only while sitting up and which would take his life in less than a year. With his physical skills diminishing, he continued to win games through craftiness and well-placed pitches.Delving into Shocker's baseball career, his love of the game, and his battle with heart disease, Steve Steinberg shows the dominant and courageous force that he was.

Works great for 2013 Toyota RAV4
Fit my 2013 Toyota RAV4 perfectly. Easy to install. Well made full HEPA filter with carbon layer. As good as the expensive filters I use in my home. Have not had chance to see how well it works during spring allergy season yet, but I expect that it will do great.

Best cabin filter I've ever used...
After my girlfriend dumped a container of Italian beef juice onto the passenger side floor mat and having it soak into the floor mat and the carpeting, it left my new car stinking of Beef gravy. I bought this to hopefully extract the annoying and horrible smell from my car. The filter is perfectly made and fit with exacting precision and minimal effort. If is well built and of superb quality, materials. The bright white cartridge style top side is pleated for maximum air to filter contact. The other side has these wonderful beads of activated charcoal/carbon that are for absorbing odors. As soon as I installed it and turned on my ventilation/ AC/Heat, I could smell the clean filter and also a sense of cleaner air. Hoping this will do the job in time!!
