Reviews
"Books chronicling complete baseball seasons are enjoyable--and necessary. Memoirs capture a player's spirit in time; biographies explore an individual's great achievement, often in the context of his team's success. Suds Series depicts the nuances of 162 games that are often lost to history when not alongside championship triumphs--Hal McRae's amazing 133 RBIs at age 36; Steve Carlton's last Cy Young Award-winning season; fans across the country watching a nationally-televised Sunday game in October instead of NFL Football; Joe Morgan's final-day heroics for a 3rd-place team. J. Daniel offers an engrossing and vital deep dive encapsulating facts, figures and player quotes from the days and nights of 1982 Major League Baseball." -- Dave Jordan , coauthor of Cobra: A Life of Baseball & Brotherhood, "This is a fun, fast ride through one of baseball's most enjoyable seasons."-- Nathan Michael Corzine , author of Team Chemistry: The History of Drugs and Alcohol in Major League Baseball, "In Suds Series , J. Daniel takes readers on a totally awesome trip to 1982, the age of E.T., Pac-Man, Spicoli--and some of the most fascinating characters in baseball history. With meticulous research and an infectious passion for the subject, J. Daniel delivers a compelling time capsule of the wheeling and dealing that helped the Cardinals and Brewers upend the established powers of the late '70s. Like a frosty mug overflowing with your favorite brew, Suds Series is satisfying to the last sip."-- Tyler Kepner , national baseball columnist for the New York Times, "This is a fun, fast ride through one of baseball's most enjoyable seasons--one that includes coverage of two overlooked gems, the season-concluding series between the Brewers and the Orioles, and the Brewers and the Angels."-- Nathan Michael Corzine , Coastal Carolina Community College, author of Team Chemistry: The History of Drugs and Alcohol in Major League Baseball

Synopsis
In Suds Series , J. Daniel takes readers back forty years, telling a story that is part baseball history, part urban history, and part U.S. cultural history, the narrative weaving together the development of the Midwest cities of St. Louis and Milwaukee through their engagement with beer and baseball. As the National and American League champions squared off for the 1982 Fall Classic, the St. Louis Cardinals, owned by Anheuser-Busch, took on the Milwaukee Brewers, so named by owner Bud Selig in homage to the city's baseball and brewing past. Even nominal baseball fans will enjoy reading about legendary players, teams, and personalities that emerged in the 1982 season: the year Ricky Henderson stole 130 bases; Reggie Jackson led the league in home runs; and Cal Ripken Jr. began his remarkable playing streak. Readers will also enjoy the cultural references, including the Pac-Man craze, a chart-topping album by Rush, and the "Light Beer Wars" waged by Anheuser-Busch and the Miller Brewing Company through a series of humorous TV commercials featuring well-loved professional sports figures.
