A love letter to baseball, and the follow-up to last year’s runaway bestseller, THE BASEBALL 100
THE BASEBALL 100 was about the top 100 baseball players. Joe Posnanski’s next book is about the top 50 moments.
Willie Mays’s catch. Babe Ruth’s called shot. Kirk Gibson’s limping home run.
BUT—each moment will be told from a unique perspective. That of a real fan who witnessed it, or the pitcher who gave up the home run. The umpire, the coach, the opposing player, the teammate. Fresh tales on legendary moments so powerful they almost feel like myth.
This will be the ideal sports gift book of the holidays!
