Download or read book A Promise Kept written by Carl E. Stotz and published by Zebrowski Historical Services. This book was released on 1992 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before the first Little League game was ever played in 1939, a little boy stood on a sand lot impatiently waiting for his turn at bat. Would the pitcher ever strike out that last batter? As he stood there he dreamed, wouldn't it be great if we could have uniforms & a stadium just like the big leaguers? He could almost hear the crowds cheer as he envisioned a home run over the center field fence. That dream stayed locked away until one warm summer afternoon when Carl Stotz was playing catch with his two nephews. He made them a promise, the promise that grew to become one of America's best known & most enduring institutions, Little League baseball. Though there are others who have claimed to be co-founders, the concept, the first baseball diamond for boys, their uniforms, & the right ball all originated with Carl Stotz. He made the rules, found the money, & organized his friends to form the first Little League in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Filled with his favorite stories & photos of the early years, this is Carl's story. This is the story of how Little League came to be, by the man who started it all.

Download or read book Joy in Mudville written by Greg Mitchell and published by Washington Square Press. This book was released on 2002-05-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a classic American rite of passage. It's Little League® baseball...and coaching his son's team gave one father a profound and hilarious perspective on the suburban field of dreams. Managing his son's wildly unpredictable Little League through two nail-biting seasons and a dramatic playoff showdown, Greg Mitchell (who once played baseball with Bruce Springsteen) learned as much about baseball as he did about today's kids, about parenting -- and about adult involvement in a game played by and meant for kids. With humor and wisdom, Mitchell captures a colorful cast of characters, outrageous anecdotes, and the pleasures and pitfalls faced by players and their coaches. Commenting on timely issues -- the phenomenon of "Little League rage" and the role of youth sports in our electronic age -- Mitchell scores with a memorable protrait of a father-son experience like no other.

Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller from the author of The Bullpen Gospels. “A humorous, candid and insightful memoir . . . Grade: Home Run.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer After six years in the minors, pitcher Dirk Hayhurst hopes 2008 is the year he breaks into the big leagues. But every time Dirk looks up, the bases are loaded with challenges—a wedding balancing on a blind hope, a family in chaos, and paychecks that beg Dirk to ask, “How long can I afford to keep doing this?” Then it finally happens—Dirk gets called up to the Majors, to play for the San Diego Padres. A dream comes true when he takes the mound against the San Francisco Giants, kicking off forty insane days and nights in the Bigs. Like the classic games of baseball’s history, Out of My League entertains from the first pitch to the last out, capturing the gritty realities of playing on the big stage, the comedy and camaraderie in the dugouts and locker rooms, and the hard-fought, personal journeys that drive our love of America’s favorite pastime. “A rare gem of a baseball book.”—Tom Verducci, Sports Illustrated “Observant, insightful, human, and hilarious.”—Bob Costas “A fun read . . . This book shows why baseball is so often used as a metaphor for life.”—Keith Olbermann “Entertaining and engaging . . . reminiscent of Jim Bouton’s Ball Four.”—Booklist “The book is a terrific read. If you loved Bullpen Gospels (I’d have a hard time believing you are a baseball fan if you didn’t) you will love Out of My League too.”—Bluebird Banter
