Baseball Toaster was unplugged on February 4, 2009.
For better or worse, Leonard Schecter helped change the course of sports journalism, and this was before he helped Jim Bouton write Ball Four. Alan Schwarz has a great column on Schecter today in the Times. This is so cool because I was just talking about Schecter with a friend this week as we rated the great Sport magazine writers of the Sixties. He's really a slept-on figure. Props to Schwarz for giving Schecter some burn.
