About this title

Synopsis

The 2002 baseball season will be one St. Louis Cardinals fans will remember forever, for many reasons. From early pitching woes and the tragic deaths of long-time broadcaster Jack buck and promising pitcher Darryl Kile to a visit to NYC's ground zero, contract negotiations and opinions about Bud Selig, select Cardinal players and author Rob Rains ensure that those memories are forever captured on paper in A Special Season. Starting with spring training and ending with their final game of the postseason, catcher Mike Matheny and other players describe their thoughts and feelings about the events that unfolded throughout the year, including inside information, humorous anecdotes and personal strategies for dealing with tragedy and overcoming obstacles. Written as entries in personal journals, this book provides lasting memories of what truly was A Special Season.
