  Describes Walsh's life and 14-year playing career, with special discussion of the spitball, a pitch that profoundly affected his fortunes - and ultimately his arm. This biography also explores the years 1905-1911, especially his contributions to the 1906 world champion White Sox and his prominent role in the now-famous 1908 pennant race.
