From Opening Day through the Red Sox red-hot summer and on into September, when Boston's lead over the Yankees vanished into thin air during a series dubbed the "Boston Massacre", Chapman takes the reader through a play-by-play accounting of how the Red Sox succumbed to the ancient Greek sin of hubris. With the regular season culminating in a tie, forcing a one-game playoff between the perennially-winning Yankees and the frequently-hapless Red Sox -- a team that hadn't won a World Series since 1918 -- Chapman puts the reader right in the stands for that fateful day in October. Due to the author's fair treatment of both teams and his literary handling of his subject matter, The Year of the Gerbil is sure to delight fans of the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox as well as baseball fans everywhere as it takes its just place on bookshelves alongside of other great classics of the sport.
