Bottom of the 33rd: Hope, Redemption, and Baseball's Longest Game - Dan Barry

Descriere Bottom of the 33rd: Hope, Redemption, and Baseball's Longest Game - Dan Barry

\n \nBottom of the 33rd is chaw-chewing, sunflower-spitting, pine tar proof that too much baseball is never enough. --Jane Leavy, author of The Last Boy and Sandy Koufax \n \nWhat a book--an exquisite exercise in story-telling, democracy and myth-making. --Colum McCann, winner of the National Book Award for Let The Great World Spin \n \nFrom Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Dan Barry comes the beautifully recounted story of the longest game in baseball history--a tale celebrating not only the robust intensity of baseball, but the aspirational ideal epitomized by the hard-fighting players of the minor leagues. In the tradition of Moneyball, The Last Hero, and Wicked Good Year, Barry's Bottom of the 33rd is a reaffirming story of the American Dream finding its greatest expression in timeless contests of the Great American Pastime. \n
