Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Baseball's Most Valuable Writer, Thomas Boswell of The Washington Post, hits a grand slam with this classic collection of heartfelt and humorous pieces on our national's pastime. The lineup includes Heroes, Managing (Life), and The Flame of Fame, which capture some of the outstanding players in baseball, from DiMaggio, Weaver, and Ozzie Smith to Rose, Sutton, and Gooden; Five Octobers, which shows that baseball is a dynamic game in which any team can rise to the top; and the hilarious and memorable 99 Reasons Why Baseball Is Better Than Football (Reason 20: Eighty degrees, a cold and a short-sleeve shirt are better than 30 degrees, a hip flask, and six layers of clothes under a blanket).
