Download or read book Baseball written by George Bowering and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its remarkable design to its effervescent language, George Bowering's ode to the beautiful game is as original as it is funny, as bittersweet as it is playful. A long-out-of-print Coach House classic, originally published in 1967, Baseball weaves together mythology, autobiography, literary history and pop culture into an inimitable book-length poem that explores all the nuances of the sport. Here are all the greats: Mantle, DiMaggio, Maris, Williams and Manuel Louie, shortstop for the Wenatchee Chiefs, their exploits captured in passages of off-kilter, occasionally melancholy, lyricism. Gar Smith's enchanting and ingenious design has also been preserved; the book, complete with green velvet-flocked covers, is shaped like a pennant that, when unfolded, forms a diamond. A long-time utility player, Bowering (our Homer?) has written books in many different genres and was named Canada's first Poet Laureate. Baseball is a tantalizing glimpse of the writer at the beginning of his illustrious career; a real curveball of a book that will dazzle literature and sports fans alike.

Through their example and influence, the style Of performance at the initial corner went through a very marked change, until today, the first baseman is one of the most important factors in the defensive end Of the game. He is required to cover almost as much ground as any other in fielder on batted balls and he has become of vast assistance in heading Off hits in the general dirce tion of right field.

Download or read book Baseball written by W. J. Clarke and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Baseball: Individual Play in Detail, With Illustrations and Diagrams The present position of the game of baseball in the United States, the enthusiasm with which it is played, and the interest with which it is watched by the American people have made it very evident that it would be valuable both to players and spectators to have easily available a book formulating what has been found to be the best way of playing the game. Although it is a sport which is most widely followed, yet comparatively few players, and fewer spectators, really understand it thoroughly. The reason for this will be apparent when one realizes that the leaders of the game, with a knowledge gained through years of experience and careful study, have, for the most part, reserved this knowledge for those immediately under their control, while the average player and spectator must be content to play and watch the game as best he can. A brief review of the development of the game will help to bring out the facts that have to do with the writing of this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spalding's Athletic Library: How to Play Third Base Quickness of thought and coolness under fire are the qualities which make a player at third dangerous to the team on the offensive. With these careful thought and hard work are meces sary in learning to play the position as it should be played. This is becoming all the more true every year and a finished third baseman is growing more valuable every day. Before the bunt was used so extensively and scientific bat ting had reached the point it has now a slower man who could hit hard had a chance at third. Now the fastest men on the team are none too fast for third and the batsmen in either of the big leagues will discover a slow thinker and slow mover almost instantly and force him from the game by directing their fire in his direction. A man who is erratic at third will throw an entire team off its stride. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Calling the Game written by Stuart Shea and published by SABR, Inc.. This book was released on 2015-05-07 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calling the Game: Baseball Broadcasting from 1920 to the Present is an exhaustive, meticulously researched history of bringing the national pastime out of the ballparks and into living rooms via the airwaves. Every play-by-play announcer, color commentator, and ex-ballplayer who has presented a Major League Baseball game to the public is included here. So is every broadcast deal, radio station, and TV network. In addition to chapters for each of the game's thirty franchises, a history of national broadcasting and a look at some of the game's most memorable national broadcast moments are included, as are a foreword by "Voice of the Chicago Cubs" Pat Hughes, and an afterword by Jacques Doucet, the "Voice of the Montreal Expos, 1972-2004." Each team chapter presents a chronological look from how and when the team began broadcasting (since all of the original sixteen major-league franchises predate radio) through the 2014 season. Author Stuart Shea details the history and strategies that shaped each club's broadcast crews, including the highlights and scandals, the hirings and firings, the sponsorships and corporate maneuverings. From the leap to Brooklyn from the radio booth of the Atlanta Crackers by young Ernie Harwell, to the dismissal of Mel Allen by the Yankees, from the tutelage of the now-legendary Vin Scully under the wing of the already legendary Red Barber, to the ascendance of the great Jack Buck to the number one chair in St. Louis upon the ouster of Harry Caray, the stories of the personalities who connect us to the game are all here. Calling the Game is a groundbreaking and illuminating look at the people and the story behind the soundtrack of summer for millions of baseball fans.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Baseball Instruction Book If you practice pitching only a short distance, say forty feet for a month, then go into a regular game, then the bat ter would seem far away, your speed would'be less and you would have poor control.
