9780486482095: Baseball Is . . .: Defining the National Pastime (Dover Baseball)

Synopsis

From Yogi Berra's rib-tickling "Berraisms" to Walt Whitman's "Baseball is our game — the American game," this ideal gift for baseball fans drives home the fact that baseball is a game of many interpretations. It features hundreds of wisecracking, philosophical, nostalgic, and above all, entertaining quips and observations. Sources include players, their wives, managers, authors, and other enthusiasts, observers, and commentators, who remark on every aspect of what our national pastime has been and what it is today.
