Book Synopsis Babe Ruth and the 1918 Red Sox by : Allan Wood
Download or read book Babe Ruth and the 1918 Red Sox written by Allan Wood and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-12-26 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Babe Ruth and the 1918 Red Sox is the first complete account of Boston's fifth World Series championship. The year is famous, but most fans know very little about the season. During that tumultuous summer, the Great War in Europe cast an ominous shadow over the national game, as enlistments and the draft wreaked havoc with every team's roster. Players and owners fought bitterly over contracts and revenue, the parks were infested with gamblers, and the Red Sox and the Chicago Cubs almost called off the World Series. And a Boston player known as The Colossus -- 23-year-old Babe Ruth -- began his historic transformation from pitching ace to the game's greatest slugger. Wood also poses a chilling question: Was the 1918 World Series fixed? Sports Illustrated called the book "an entertaining and exhaustive account of a tumultuous season" and Robert W. Creamer, author of the definitive biography of Ruth, said "Mr. Wood has lit upon one of the most turbulent and important and at the same time least known years in baseball history. He has done remarkable, revelatory research, and he has a clean, clear way of writing."

Book Synopsis The SABR Baseball List & Record Book by : Society for American Baseball Research
Download or read book The SABR Baseball List & Record Book written by Society for American Baseball Research and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-03-20 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the authority on baseball research and statistics comes a vast and fascinating compendium of unique baseball lists and records. The SABR Baseball List & Record Book is an expansive collection of pitching, hitting, fielding, home run, team, and rookie records not available online or in any other book. This is a treasure trove of baseball history for statistically minded baseball fans that's also packed with intriguing marginalia. For instance, on July 25, 1967, Chicago's Ken Berry ended Game Two of a doubleheader against Cleveland with a home run in the bottom of the sixteenth inning -- Chicago's second game-winning homer of the day. The comprehensive lists include Most Career Home Runs by Two Brothers (Tommie and Hank Aaron have 768), Most Seasons with 15 or More Wins (Cy Young and Greg Maddux each have 18), and Highest On Base Percentage in a Season by a Rookie (listing every rookie above .400). Unlike other record books that only list the record holders -- say, most RBI by a rookie, held by Ted Williams with 145 -- SABR details every rookie to reach 100 RBI. Other record books might note the last pitcher in each league to steal home; here SABR has included every pitcher to do it. The book also includes a number of idiosyncratic features, such as a rundown of every player who has hit a triple and then stolen home, or every reliever who has won two games in one day. Many of the lists include a comments column for key historical notes and entertaining trivia (Bob Horner hit four home runs in a 1986 game, but his team lost). This is a must-have for every fan's library. Edited by Lyle Spatz, Chairman of the Baseball Records Committee for SABR

Book Synopsis Seven Games in '62 by : John Iamarino
Download or read book Seven Games in '62 written by John Iamarino and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After seven games and 13 days, the outcome of the 1962 World Series hung on the final pitch, thrown by a pitcher for the New York Yankees to a hitter for the San Francisco Giants. The teams had been evenly matched, alternating victories until the final, winner-take-all contest. One more out would give the Yankees the championship. A hit would almost certainly win the Giants their first Series title since moving to San Francisco. Despite its breathtaking climax, the '62 Series has seldom been chronicled among the most dramatic Fall Classics. This book provides an unprecedented in-depth examination, describing in detail each game of the Series and the events that led up to it, including the Giants' thrilling playoff with the Dodgers for the National League pennant. The author compares common game strategies used in the early 1960s vs. today and explores possible factors that made this Series historically underrated in the annals of baseball.

Book Synopsis THE RECORD BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS- 96. English – England by : Official World Record Team
Download or read book THE RECORD BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS- 96. English – England written by Official World Record Team and published by OFFICIAL WORLD RECORD TEAM. This book was released on 2023-04-23 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of literature is excited about the arrival of the first book of world records to set five records at the same time, but there is another amazing achievement to note. This book has managed to enter the Top 10 of the most translated texts of humanity in its first edition as can be seen in the same WIKIPEDIA which will soon have to integrate this new achievement, something extremely rare in the industry of edition and more in the books of world records that so far most translations were in a maximum of 36 languages, so that many languages have for the first time a book of world records worldwide or on the continents. The last book to enter this ranking took 80 years to complete, which shows how difficult it is to secure a place in this select group. However, the first book of world records managed to enter the Top 10 in its first edition, which is an impressive feat that has left many literary experts speechless. Moreover, this book also managed to be the third in the list of most translated books in the world and the most translated e-book in the world. These achievements testify to the global reach of this work, which was translated into 328 different languages in its first edition, covering 100% of the countries of the world. The OFFICIAL WORLD RECORD association, responsible for this impressive achievement, demonstrates its ingenuity and ability to internalize itself in the publishing industry. This organization is one of only two international record keeping associations capable of registering records globally, while the other is a fully private company. Obtaining its recognition means obtaining a unique and very special prestige and global category that only the few and the best can achieve or aspire to have in the world. In short, the first book of world records to set five records at the same time in a single book has managed to enter the Top 10 of the most translated texts of mankind in its first edition, an impressive achievement which underlines its importance. And its global reach. in the world of literature and for everyone to have the opportunity to buy it in their native language, sales will be made through a global book site such as AMAZON. This book is a real gem for anyone interested in world records and literature, and a testament to human ingenuity and creativity in achieving extraordinary achievements across the globe. The OFFICIAL WORLD RECORD association is a recognized organization committed to its mission of recording and recognizing world records. The approval of a notarial deed by the College of Notaries of the European Union and its recognition as an NGO in the United States and Spain are proof of the organization's seriousness and commitment. The association has a notarial act approval from the College of Notaries of the European Union, which makes it an official and recognized body in Europe. This act has been approved by the rest of the associations of notaries in the world through a process called apostille carried out in The Hague, which makes it the only organization of global registers that is not motivated by partisan or economic interests like any private company would do. In addition, the priorities of the organization are to improve the social inclusion of people with a certain type of disability, the environment, and the defense of human rights, as well as just causes and action. As spokesperson for their defense by holding records around the world.
Book Synopsis Baseball and the Mythic Moment by : James D. Hardy, Jr.
Download or read book Baseball and the Mythic Moment written by James D. Hardy, Jr. and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2007-02-12 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While moments come and go, and popular trends are created only to be consumed and replaced, a small handful of events are able to transcend place and time to become widely shared cultural touchstones. Baseball, with its longevity, reverence for character and perseverance, and symbolism of American values, has produced a number of these modern myths--people, games and events that transcend society's love for the ephemeral to attain collective cultural significance. The Babe's called shot and Ripken's 2,131st are more than significant moments in baseball. They are culturally relevant events that contribute to an American mythology. This book examines how certain baseball moments became mythic, and why some moments are culturally persistent while others are limited in importance to the confines of sport. After a discussion of baseball in myth and memory, and the effect of the media on both, chapters draw a distinction between the merely famous (or infamous) and the mythic act, whether it's physical (Bobby Thomson) or symbolic (Jackie Robinson); matchups, whether individual (Alexander vs. Lazzeri) or team (Red Sox-Yankees 1978 playoff); clubs, both those that achieved (1927 Yankees) and that choked (1964 Phillies); and franchises, including the winners (Yankees) and the losers (Cubs).
