Overview
Here is the best writing ever, fiction and nonfiction, about the moment a home run is hit. From a memoir of Ted Williams's 1946 All-Star Game homer to a fictional visit Babe Ruth made to Lake Wobegon; from Mark McGwire's 69th and 70th home runs to Hank Aaron's pursuit of the Babe's record; from Roger Maris's 61st home run to the truth about Bobby Thompson and the famed "Shot Heard ÔRound the World," the book offers the most complete, most compelling and most authoritative take on that moment the wood hits the ball, and the crowd rises to its feet. Includes writing by: Don DeLillo, Grantland Rice, Bernard Malamud, Red Smith, Rick Telander, John Updike, Garrison Keillor, Robert W. Creamer, Paul Gallico, and many more.
