Veteran sportswriter Dan Schlossberg weaves in facts, figures, and famous quotes, discusses strategy, and provides stats and imagesmany of them never previously published elsewhere.

You will also learn the origin of team and player nicknames, fun facts about the All-Star Game and World Series, and so much more.
