Blue Monday: The Expos, the Dodgers, and the Home Run That Changed Everything
Blue Monday: one of the most unforgettable days in Canadian baseball history.
Danny Gallagher leads readers up to that infamous day in October 1981 when Rick Monday of the Los Angeles Dodgers hit a home run off of Montreal Expos pitcher Steve Rogers in the ninth inning, giving the Dodgers a berth in the World Series. Readers will be taken back to 1976 when a five-year plan for winning the National League championship was set in place by the Expos with the hiring of experienced manager Dick Williams. Gallagher examines old narratives about Blue Monday and talks to all the key players involved in the game, unearthing secrets and stories never before told.

Praise for this book
Those who were Expos fans or followed the team during its existence will want to pick this up to learn a little more about the man who broke Canada's heart, Rick Monday. Gallagher's interviews and writing about Monday since that home run give the reader an inside glimpse into the man that many baseball fans have never seen.-- "The Guy Who Reviews Sports Books"
