When Team Italia Ruled the World Baseball Stage

Here's a very interesting article...especially for Italian-American fans of baseball like myself. Written by a Red Sox fan, but that's alright...the article is great! If you think about it, baseball has seen a lot of great Italian-American players in its history. Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra, Phil Rizzuto to name a few. And there are even notable players today in Rocco Baldelli, Mark Defelice, David Delucci, and more.

Here's the article at the Bleacher Report.
