The Catcher Was A Lady: The Clem Dreisewerd Story
By Edna Dreisewerd
This work is the story of Clem and Edna Dreisewerd — their marriage, hopes, and above all the 18 years of professional baseball that they shared. Clem signed on with the New York Giants in 1936 and, through the love and encouragement of his wife, made it to the top in baseball, even pitching in the World Series with the Boston Red Sox.
