Hardback. Condition: New. 2024 Casey Award Finalist for Best Baseball Book of the Year!Like many American boys, Tony Barnette yearned to one day make it to "The Show," playing baseball professionally. The Arizona State pitcher was drafted in 2006 by the in-state Diamondbacks. Gradually ascending the minor-league ladder, it looked like this was the beginning of a blessed life, where he could play the game he loved on the grandest of stages in front of family and friends.But things don't always work out the way we want.On the verge of achieving his lifelong dream after notching a league-high 14 wins in Triple A, Tony looked ahead to 2010 with optimism. That's when Japan came calling, offering a significant salary hike in exchange for forgoing a likely forthcoming big-league debut.The Diamondbacks agreed to release Tony so he could play for Tokyo's Yakult Swallows, the renowned Yomiuri Giants' intra-city rivals.At the time, the only thing he had in common with the country was a love for baseball. He did not know the language and was unfamiliar with Nippon Professional Baseball and essentially everything else. On his own in a strange land, the burning desire to one day make the major leagues never subsided. He knew the odds were against him, as less than one quarter of gaijin (Japanese for "foreigner") ballplayers who go to Japan appear in the majors at any point thereafter.First-year struggles led to multiple demotions and his end-of-year release. But when you're chasing a dream, you expect to encounter several obstacles. Tony refused to be deterred. Over six seasons in Japan, the starter became a reliever and then a closer. After a strong 2015 season, in which he guided his long-suffering Swallows to the Japan Series, he finally got the call he had been waiting for. Signing with the Texas Rangers in December, Tony would make his first major-league appearance on April 5, 2016, at age thirty-two. He'd go on to pitch four seasons with the Rangers and Chicago Cubs, fulfilling a lifelong dream.Additionally, the broader culture-heavy story shines a light on the various redemptive journeys of fellow gaijin, including agent Don Nomura, Tony's teammates, those he plays against, a British Swallows superfan-blogger and a Canadian sportswriter friend, among others. Trusty interpreter-turned-brother Go Fujisawa is featured heavily as well, as is a detailed look at the 2011 Tohoku disaster that struck on March 11, changing a nation and its people forever. Through extensive research and reporting, Aaron Fischman worked directly with Tony and his inner circle to tell his story and interrelated stories of perseverance, determination, and never giving up on your dream.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book provides how-to recommendations and detailed guides for using transradial access in interventional radiology. A relatively new and growing technique, transradial access is most commonly found within interventional cardiology. This book approaches those cardiac uses of transradial access while extending its use to other body sites and disease states. The book details the interventional radiologists transition to using transradial access across a broad spectrum of clinical applications, allowing them to better introduce it into their practice and to their patients. The text is divided into three sections: overview, clinical applications, and novel applications and techniques. The first section covers the history of transradial access, the initial patient assessment, and how to prepare for a procedure. The second section is divided into different diseases and interventional situations where transradial access could be considered, including subclavian artery stenosis and endovascular neurosurgery. The third section includes coverage of how to perform the latest techniques and projections for future procedures. This guide provides a manual of operations to assist in the setup of the practice, from office visit to procedure room to recovery across a variety of service lines and patient populations. Key take home points and equipment summaries accompany each chapter, allowing the user to easily navigate the book to accelerate his or her practice.
