Description

Author and Professor Lawrence Baldassaro loves baseball as much as he loves his Italian heritage and he brings his love to life in this book.  Baseball Italian Style brings together the memories of major leaguers of Italian heritage beginning in the 1930s up to today.  In these first-person accounts, which include eight Hall of Famers (Yogi Berra, Phil Rizzuto, Ron Santo, Craig Biggio, Mike Piazza, Tom Lasorda, Tony La Russa, and Joe Torre) as well as many more players, you will get an insight not only on the evolution of Italian American participation in baseball but, you will also learn, through the words of those who lived it, what it was and is like to play major league baseball. Size: 9.25″ x 6.25″ Pages: 275 Language: English Type: Hardcover
