Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

viii, 200 pages. Index of Names. Illustrations Identified. Illustrated cover. Minor corner creasing noted. James Charlton is the publications director for the Society for American Baseball Research, a founding editor of the Pushcart Prize, and a judge of the Casey Award, which is given annually to the best baseball book. He has written numerous books about baseball. Everything you want to know about baseball. Statistics, records, trivia. Includes chapters on -.400 hitters. -Heavy Hitters. -Batting Titles. -And much much more. Baseball is the marvelous interweaving of players, statistics and pennant winners that joins one generation to the next. We compare averages and records between starts of different decades, argue the pitching motions and batting stances of players who toiled half a century apart. Generally speaking, careers last longer in baseball than other sports so we become familiar and comfortable with ball players. We can grow up with them or grown old watching them play. For the author, this relationship was underscored again while researching and writing the revised edition of this book. Discussing Rickey Hendeson, for instance, leads to Harry Hooper; Hoopers is timed to Speaker, Speaker to Cobb, and Cobb back to Henderson. It all comes around in a circle. This allowed the author the ability to discuss a situation or game or player more fuller than a typical Q and A book might have. Revised and Updated Edition, Fifth printing [stated].
