About this title

Synopsis

The extraordinary and surprising memoir of Jamie Moyer, who at age forty-nine became the oldest pitcher to ever win a game in the major leagues.

Long-time fans of the National Pastime have known Moyer's name for more than twenty-five years. That's because he's been pitching in the bigs for all those years.

With his trademark three pitches: slow, slower, and slowest, the left-handed Moyer is a pinpoint specialist whose won-lost record actually got better as he got older. He's only a few wins shy of three-hundred for his amazing career.

Moyer was just about finished as a big leaguer in his mid-twenties when he fatefully encountered a gravel-voiced, highly confrontational sports psychologist named Harvey Dorfman. Listening to the "in-your-face" insights of Dorfman, Moyer began to re-invent himself and reconstruct his approach to his game.

Moyer went on to become an All-Star and also a World Series champion.

Yogi Berra once observed that "Half of this game is 90% mental." And Moyer's memoir proves it.

About the Author

Jamie Moyer is now fifty-one years old, and by all accounts he has now finished his big league career, although he occasionally is still asked if he might return to the mound. He started pitching in the majors in 1986.

Larry Platt served for years as the editor of the Philadelphia Daily News, and has written for the New York Times Magazine, GQ, New York, Men's Journal, and many others.
