Cox devotes a chapter to each feat (like hitting .400, or winning 30 games, etc) and at the beginning of each chapter he reviews the times it happened, prominent players who did it, and likelihood it could happen again amongst other facts. Then the meat of each chapter describes a few of the instances this particular accomplishment happens. Cox does an excellent job of considering the player, the rules of the time, the style of baseball played, even how that player might tie into other players that completed the discussed feat or another feat in the book. Cox keeps the chapters short but meanwhile still informative and entertaining.
THE IMMACULATE INNING reveals the details behind those well-known feats all baseball fans know and brings humanity those players who achieved those unique feats.
