Nine Innings
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
A timeless baseball classic and a must read for "any baseball fan worthy of the name" (Publishers Weekly), Nine Innings dissects a single baseball game in 1982 inning by inning, play by play. By using this particular moment in baseball, Okrent explores the myriad aspects of the sport that are crucial to its nature but so often invisible to the fans -- the hidden language of catchers' signals, the physiology of pitching, the balance sheet of a club owner, the gait ora player stepping up to the plate. With the purity of heart and unwavering attention to detail that characterize our national pastime, Okrent captures the very essence of baseball with his account. Readers will never watch a game the same way again.
