This masterful countdown of 50 of the most memorable episodes in baseball's history will make you fall in love with the sport all over again ? or indeed for the very first time. No.1 New York Times bestselling author Joe Posnanski writes of major moments that created legends ? Babe Ruth's called shot, Kirk Gibson's limping home run ? alongside those raw with the humanity of the game: the unheralded heroes, the mesmerising mistakes. These are moments so powerful they feel like myth ? even to a Brit raised on googlies, leg-slips and silly mid offs. Widely acclaimed on first UK publication last year, this smart new edition ties in with Posnanski's bestselling Why We Love American Football. AUTHOR: Joe Posnanski is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of six books, including The Baseball 100, Paterno and The Secret of Golf. He has been named Na¬tional Sportswriter of the Year by five different organizations. He writes at JoePosnanski.com and currently lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, with his family.
