Pitchers of Beer: The Story of the Seattle Rainiers
Dan Raley
In 1937, when local beer baron Emil Sick stepped in, the Seattle Indians were a struggling minor-league baseball team. Moved to mix baseball and beer, Sick built a new stadium and turned the team into a civic treasure. The story of the Rainiers spans the end of the Great Depression, World War II, the rise of the airline industry, and the incursion of Major League Baseball into the West Coast.
