2018 School Spending Survey Report
Talking Baseball with Major League Stars
COPY ISBN
With stories, anecdotes, and reflections from bench players to major league stars, the latest book by sports historian Stewart (The New Book of Baseball Trivia) is an amalgamation of appreciation, awe, and respect for the game, its history, players, coaches, ballparks, and, perhaps most importantly, its place in the pantheon of U.S. culture. Players, coaches, managers, and other baseball insiders expound on everything from the ugly truth about baseball’s racist past and its most fearsome hitters and pitchers to life in the big leagues and team brawls, plus fans, fame, and “taking one for the team” by purposely getting hit by 100 mph fastballs.
VERDICT Stewart’s easy-to-follow book is an unfiltered, transparent look at baseball. Written with an unapologetic vigor and reverence for the game from the perspective of hitters, position players, managers, and sports writers, it’s a must-read for anyone who has ever watched, played, or admired the sport.
