What reading level is The Red Headed Outfield (1948) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was Delaney's pride, as it was also his trouble.
Red Gilbat was nutty--and his batting average was .371. Any student of baseball could weigh these two facts against each other and understand something of Delaney's trouble. It was not possible to camp on Red Gilbat's trail. The man was a jack-o'-lantern, a will-o'-the-wisp, a weird, long- legged, long-armed, red-haired illusive phantom.
When the gong rang at the ball grounds there were ten chances to one that Red would not be present. He had b...een discovered with small boys peeping through knotholes at the vacant left field he was supposed to inhabit during play.
Of course what Red did off the ball grounds was not so important as what he did on. And there was absolutely no telling what under the sun he might do then except once out of every three times at bat he could be counted on to knock the cover off the ball.
Reddy Clammer was a grand-stand player--the kind all managers hated--and he was hitting .305.
He made circus catches, circus stops, circus throws, circus steals--but particularly circus catches.
