ROBINSON GEORGE; SALZBERG CHARLES
On A Clear Day They Could See Seventh Place: Baseball's Worst Teams
University of Nebraska Press Lincoln: 2010. Softcover. Brand new book. To err is human. To really screw up requires team effort. Everyone cheers the clubs that win pennants but what about the doormats who made their triumphs possible It's time to give baseball's lousiest teams their due. Here they are: The 1904 Washington Senators whose only good player a thirty-five-year-old star hitter took a dive fatally into Niagara Falls; the 1935 Boston Braves who set the National League standard for losing percentage despite featuring three Hall of Famers�including Yankee exile Babe Ruth; the 1952 Pittsburgh Pirates Joe Garagiola's cellar-dwelling team that was so bad he quipped "they wouldn't put our pictures on bubble gum cards"; and the 1962 New York Mets maybe not the worst team ever but definitely the funniest in modern baseball history. You'll get the stats the scores the scandals and the secrets in this no-holds-barred account. When the survivors of these diamond trainwrecks include such legends as Marv Throneberry Ralph Kiner Cal Ripken Jr. Roger Craig and Joe Garagiola you can be sure that the book unlike its subjects is a winner.

Slider
New York: HarperCollins 2002. Fine condition in bright shiny Near Fine Dust Jacket. No chips. No tears. No fading. No rubbing. Not a book club edition. No remainder marks. No owner's name or bookplate. Bright clean square tight and unmarked. Sharp corners. "First Edition" is so stated with complete number row 10 987654321 on copyright page. Dust Jacket praise from big leaguers Mike Bordick Terry Steinbach Jeff Reardon and Will the Thrill Clark. From the Dust Jacket: "Each summer on the fields of glorious Cape Marlin off the New England coast the nation's best college players gather to play the most important baseball of their lives. Jack Faber is one of them. The son of a struggling Louisiana sugar farmer Faber is a young hotshot pitcher with an unhittable slider and rocket for a fastball. He plays for the fabled Seapuit Seawolves and dreams of making the Big Show like many of his teammates. Jack triumphantly becomes the Cape's MVP but disaster awaits him when he returns to school in Louisiana. A new coach the scowling Bruno Riazzi a former pro catcher resents the kid's celebrity status and decides he needs to knock him down a peg or two. And he'll stop at nothing to make it happen. Humiliated Jack loses his lifelong art and with it his passion for the game and mysteriously his ability to throw. His fastball has become tentative his curve timid and the beloved slider floats up to the plate like a volleyball. It has happened before to pros like Rick Ankiel and Mark Wohlers brilliantly successful pitchers who suddenly lost it. A devastated Jack Faber is released from the St. Charles College roster. But the Seawolves coaches won't give up on him. They bring Jack back to Cape Marlin determined to help him rediscover his lost talent. He finds himself again under the summer sun coaches and old friends standing by him. But in the end it will be up to Jack. Based on a true story SLIDER celebrates the national pastime a game that can break grown men's hearts - as well as make them whole again." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover.

Robinson, Jackie
Baseball Has Done It
Octavo in white and red (spine) illus jacket; 216 pages ; 21 cm A lovely copy of the first edition. / Contents: The past -- The present -- The future. "Jackie Robinson's theme is that integration in baseball has proved that Americans can live together in peaceful competition. The theme is developed with a history of Negroes in baseball. Excerpts from their lives as players are given in their own words, by Larry Doby, for instance, and by Roy Campanella. Ball club managers, prominently Branch Rickey, tell why they hired Negroes and how the barriers were broken down."óPublisher. // African American athletes.
