Book excerpt: Baseball players come from Cuba, Korea, Japan...India? India is the least likely place anyone would expect a professional baseball player to come from, but one man saw potential, and gave two men a chance to prove themselves. After a strong display of athletics on the Indian television show Million Dollar Arm, two pitchers (Rinku Singh and Dinsesh Patel) were invited to America by the Pittsburg Pirates. Some saw it as a publicity stunt, and maybe it was, but these two men were able to prove they deserved that chance. This book tells their inspiring journey.

Book Synopsis 1969 Miracle Mets by : Steven Travers
Download or read book 1969 Miracle Mets written by Steven Travers and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2006-03-17 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1977 movie Oh, God!, George Burns, playing the deity, is asked to prove his divinity by performing a miracle. Burns replies, “The last miracle I did was the 1969 Mets. Before that, I think you have to go back to the Red Sea.” This book tells the tale of the single most impossible, unbelievable, and wonderful sports story of all time—of the 1969 “Amazin’ Mets” and their incredible spring, summer, and fall. But it does much more than simply recount how the worst sports franchise ever ascended to greatness in a few short months. The 1969 Miracle Mets is the story of tumultuous times: the 1960s. Against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, the New York Mets proved to be a metaphor for a changing America and, in retrospect, the catapult for the eventual comeback of a battered-yet-unbowed Metropolis. Tom Seaver and his teammates come alive in these pages as the final symbols of an innocent age, an age when the greatest icons in American culture—New York sports heroes—mounted the stage in awesome splendor, before Watergate, before free agency, before the mercenaries took over.
Book Synopsis Gambling Under C. O. N. T. R. O. L - Baseball Underdogs by : Johnny Depot
Download or read book Gambling Under C. O. N. T. R. O. L - Baseball Underdogs written by Johnny Depot and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-07-17 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a complete system for betting on the MLB underdogs. No stone will be unturned, and once the book is completed, you should be able to use the system profitably. I have been gambling for over 26 years, and have made every mistake there is. I have tried every single type of money management system known to man. I did not become a consistent winner until I realized that I better quit worrying about how much I was winning and started concentrating on how little I could lose. I developed the CONTROL methodology, and this revolution turned my losing ways, into winning days. My guess is you have bought this book since you have been losing, while betting America's past time. My guess is you are out of control, and with CONTROL, you can change your luck. It will not be easy. You will have to make the commitment, and follow through. This book will show you which games to play, and how to play them. Most of you know how to do research, and fail miserably with your money & risk control. Knowing how to play the games is the key to success. Knowing the proper amounts to start with and the amount to play after a win or loss is the key to gambling. This technique was over 20 years in the making, so please take it all in. You may not like or agree what I have to say, but I can assure it has worked for me. This is the only way I play underdogs in baseball. This book will give a brief summary on the CONTROL technique as it applies to this system only. Getting control of your losses is the key to successful money management. Fortunately, betting MLB underdogs is the simplest form of sports wagering. All of my gambling, trading and books on speculation will cover CONTROL since that is how I live. It may appear that CONTROL is the same for each gambling event, but I assure you that even though the theory is the same, the particulars are different.

Download or read book Infinite Baseball written by Alva Noë and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baseball is a strange sport: it consists of long periods in which little seems to be happening, punctuated by high-energy outbursts of rapid fire activity. Because of this, despite ever greater profits, Major League Baseball is bent on finding ways to shorten games, and to tailor baseball to today's shorter attention spans. But for the true fan, baseball is always compelling to watch -and intellectually fascinating. It's superficially slow-pace is an opportunity to participate in the distinctive thinking practice that defines the game. If baseball is boring, it's boring the way philosophy is boring: not because there isn't a lot going on, but because the challenge baseball poses is making sense of it all. In this deeply entertaining book, philosopher and baseball fan Alva Noë explores the many unexpected ways in which baseball is truly a philosophical kind of game. For example, he ponders how observers of baseball are less interested in what happens, than in who is responsible for what happens; every action receives praise or blame. To put it another way, in baseball - as in the law - we decide what happened based on who is responsible for what happened. Noe also explains the curious activity of keeping score: a score card is not merely a record of the game, like a video recording; it is an account of the game. Baseball requires that true fans try to tell the story of the game, in real time, as it unfolds, and thus actively participate in its creation. Some argue that baseball is fundamentally a game about numbers. Noe's wide-ranging, thoughtful observations show that, to the contrary, baseball is not only a window on language, culture, and the nature of human action, but is intertwined with deep and fundamental human truths. The book ranges from the nature of umpiring and the role of instant replay, to the nature of the strike zone, from the rampant use of surgery to controversy surrounding performance enhancing drugs. Throughout, Noe's observations are surprising and provocative. Infinite Baseball is a book for the true baseball fan.

Book Synopsis Betting on Major League Baseball by : Ken Osterman
Download or read book Betting on Major League Baseball written by Ken Osterman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a LARGE PRINT format paperback using an 18 pt. Arial font. The essence of any good baseball handicapping system is to find games to bet on that will result in long-term profits. In other words, finding overlays. The Underdog Method uses an approach to not only find these good bets, but does so by creating a money line that can be compared to the one offered by sports books. Author and sports gambler, Ken Osterman, explains this system in an easy-to-understand way, and then uses an entire day of baseball games as examples. Each game is handicapped per the rules of the Underdog Method, and then a betting line is created. This line is compared to a specific sports book's money line. It is then decided, based upon specific rules, whether a good bet exists or not. Although demonstrating the effectiveness of any betting system is limited in a book, the approach to Major League Baseball betting using the Underdog System is significantly different than the simple angles and methods seen elsewhere. The results using The Underdog Method, for the 2015 playoffs were impressive. All games were handicapped, both the American and National League games as well as the World Series. The Results: There were a total of 26 bets There was an average price of +141.9 for all 26 wagers 13 wins and 13 losses Return on flat bet wagering was 19.81%

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the diverse landscape of sport migration across various sports, examining how cultural significance and the global hierarchy shape migration patterns, networks, and decisions. The Czech Republic boasts a rich sporting heritage that traces back to the Sokol movement and has been significantly influenced by the YMCA. Sport migration continues to increasingly shape the country’s sporting culture today. Focusing on the cultural primary sports of ice hockey and football, the secondary sports of basketball and volleyball, and the developing sport of baseball, this book examines the impacts of migration on athletes, national federations, teams, and fans. Based on over twenty years of ethnographic research, the author employs multiple methodologies to examine this phenomenon of globalization, including the historical, political, economic, and sporting system contexts that influence these multi-directional global flows. Each chapter employs different methodologies to analyze migration and its effects, providing valuable insights for future researchers.
