Joe Posnanski is a good writer, but this is not his best work. Buck O'Neil is a great subject and Posnanski could have done more with the access he was granted. O'Neil is a hero, but would have appeared more so with the blinders off. Maybe Posnanski thought enough writing had been done about the Negro Leagues - he ultimately does Mr. O'Neil a disservice by being so complimentary.
