Product Information

Whether he's explaining what goes through a ballplayer's mind when he faces a fastball in the chapter "My Face Was Crushed by a Bowling Ball Going 90mph", detailing bizarre rituals and superstitions performed by some of baseball's greatest players, or taking us into the locker room to see what transpires in the clubhouse of a Major League team, Kurkjian's tales are at times hilarious, other times horrifying, yet always entertaining.Kurkjian has spoken to some of the greatest ballplayers ever over the years and they have revealed details about themselves and the game they love with a candor that readers won't find anywhere else. Filled with anecdotes and fascinating insight, this is an essential book for baseball fans or anyone curious about America's pastime.

What a beautiful piece. It was described with perfect accuracy, was exactly as described, the shipping speed was phenomenal, and I don't think I have ever received anything protectively wrapped with such care. It arrived in great condition. They even reached out to keep me updated on the preparation and shipping process. This seller is highly recommended by me. If I ever am in the market again for similar items, this seller will be my first stop.
