Marilyn J.'s picture
April 5, 2012 - 12:28pm — Marilyn J.

24 wildly different pieces, each one a gem, from Colum McCann's touching account of taking up American baseball through his son to Pete Dexter's savagely funny piece about identifying with Chuck Knoblauch, who woke up one day unable to throw the ball; from Yankee-haters and Yankee biographers; all the way to a brilliant end about dead Yankees....this is a book for writers and readers, whether they care about baseball or the Yankees or not. And it's a brilliant gift for baseball lovers.
