Jack Morris’ Masterpiece & The Show-Me World Series
This week on The Baseball Book Club, we revisit one of the greatest postseason pitching performances in baseball history: Jack Morris and his unforgettable 10-inning shutout in Game 7 of the 1991 World Series. More than three decades later, Morris’ legendary outing still stands as the gold standard for postseason grit, endurance, and October drama.
Then, we welcome author Marshall Garvey to the show to discuss his novel, Interstate '85. We dive into the story behind the book, the baseball themes woven throughout it, and how the game continues to inspire compelling storytelling far beyond the foul lines.
From one of baseball’s most iconic nights to a conversation about literature, memory, and the game’s enduring pull, this episode covers a little bit of everything for baseball fans and book lovers alike.
