Awesome book! I really loved this book. I've been to most of the baseball parks in the country and this book really tells it like it is. I especially like the fact that they did not ignore the concrete stadiums of the 70's, they are a part of baseball history. And the info on the new parks is great as well. Read more

Better get a life, or you'll wind up imitating this art. As others have noted, this book is the Dr. Pepper of modern novels: you're going to like it or hate it. Clearly this novel can be read and interpreted at several levels; but it is especially appropriate for those who enjoy the dice-and-chart or statistically-oriented computer baseball simulations....

Bloop Single At Best! A bit disappointing from the great reviews I read.
