Baseball Books You Probably Haven't Read

This is a collection of baseball fiction - mostly novels, but some short stories mixed in. They span from 1880 (!) to close to the present time. I haven't read them all, myself. At least, not yet.
If you have titles you would recommend to me, please put them in the comments. Not books that are very well read or authors known for their baseball books, even if a less known title, but either authors known for other works who also wrote baseball (like Zane Grey) or simply good books that got overlooked by the public and the reviewers (and me).
Thank you!
