Baseball's Starry Night gives you a fan's-eye view of a night that many have called the most exciting night in the history of Major League Baseball. Going beyond a standard retelling of the balls and strikes and homers and webgems, the book hears from 20 fans in their own words. Loyal fans of the St. Louis Cardinals, Atlanta Braves, Boston Red Sox, and Tampa Bay Rays provide exciting and deeply personal eyewitness accounts -- either from the stadiums or their living rooms. Get the "you-are-there" feeling. "This is a magical book about a magical night. This beautifully told story captures baseball at its very best." Doris Kearns Goodwin "September 28, 2011. It was a night that will forever be frozen in baseball time. A night of miracles. A night of magic. A night of heartbreak. A night for the history books. Somebody needed to write a book about that night. Thankfully, Paul Kocak volunteered for the job. And in this beautifully written book, he takes us not merely inside the astonishing ups and downs of this unforgettable evening, but inside the hearts and minds of 'ordinary' people -- the fans whose pulse rates haven't come down yet." Jayson Stark, ESPN.com Senior Baseball Writer "A retelling unlike any other of the greatest night in baseball regular-season history." Chris Mallonee, BirdsOnTheBat82.com "With Baseball's Starry Night, Paul Kocak captures an unforgettable moment in time in powerful, passionate prose that will bring fans to their feet all over again." Greg Tobin, former editor-in-chief of Book-of-the-Month Club, Inc. and author of Holy Holidays! "Paul Kocak hits an 'inside the park homer.' What a night!" Len Berman, Sportscaster/Author

The ancient Greeks had a spectacular civilization which was involved in every art and science. Approximately 3,000 names have come down to us of key personalities that contributed to this culture. We have the work of only one-quarter of these and fragments of the work of the remainder. This book describes the known work of 704 of these ancient personalities. There are many books that give the lives of the more famous of these ancient Greeks. There are a number of biographical dictionaries that give one line descriptions of many more of these ancients. This book, though, is an attempt to describe the major points about all ancient Greek personalties of which anything is known. It is a handy encyclopedia in which one can quickly find the salient features of any ancient Greek personality. Each article in this book has the following order: The personality's name is stated. This is followed by his birth and death years or whatever of these can be approximated. The first sentence of the text gives the areas in which the personality was active. Then there is a description of whatever is known about the character and life of the personality. The article concludes with the material or intellectual accomplishments of the personality.

Not only are movies and baseball two of America's favorite pastimes, they are integral parts of our culture. Small wonder that the two frequently merge in Hollywood's use of baseball themes, jargon, and icons. This work on baseball in the movies is organized into four sections examining different aspects of the cultural intersection between film and baseball. In the first three sections--"Baseball in Baseball Films," "Babe Ruth and the Silver Screen," and "Baseball in Non-Baseball Films"--essays by scholars in various disciplines cover such topics as symbols, the role of family, baseball as a facilitator of violence, and the American mythos. The fourth section consists of interviews with directors (such as Ron Shelton and Penny Marshall), actors (Kevin Costner, James Belushi), and baseball personnel (broadcaster Vin Scully, coach Rod Dedeaux) who have worked in baseball films. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

“First in War, First in Peace . . . and Last in the American League.” Expressions such as this characterized the legend and lore of baseball in the nation's capital, from the pioneering Washington Nationals of 1859 to the Washington Senators, whose ignominious departure in 1971 left Washingtonians bereft of the national pastime for thirty-three years. This reflective book gives the complete history of the game in the D.C. area, including the 1924 World Series championship team and the Homestead Grays, the perennial Negro League pennant winners from the late 1930s to the mid-1940s who consistently outplayed the Senators. New chapters describe the present-day Nationals, who, in 2012, won the National League East led by the arms of Gio Gonzalez and Stephen Strasburg and the bats of Ryan Zimmerman, Adam LaRoche and rookie Bryce Harper. The book is filled with the voices of current and former players, along with presidents, senators, and political commentators who call the team their own.

In 2010 and 2011, the University of South Carolina Gamecocks baseball team won back-to-back national championships, an accomplishment won by only six other teams in the 68-year College World Series. In 2012, a few veteran players returned to try for a three-peat a feat completed once only by Southern California in 1972. The rest of the new Gamecocks squad was made up of fresh men hardly expected to have a winning season let alone win a college world series. Still, the 2012 season turned magical! Wet-behind-the-ears freshmen coalesced into a winning team led by returning ace Michael Roth and bullpen fireman Matt Price, who were playing their final season with the Gamecocks. A starry night at Carolina Stadium saw Roth's masterful final performance as a Gamecock propel the reborn team into the last available berth at Omaha and a chance at the three-peat. What happened that night drew high praise from the opposing coach: ..". as a baseball fan and somebody that really loves the game - Roth's performance was 'Poetic Justice.'" The rest of this spell-binding baseball story -- written by the internationally published author who co-wrote CAROLINA BASEBALL: PRESSURE MAKES DIAMONDS and its eBook edition PRESSURE MAKES DIAMONDS A TIMELESS TALE OF AMERICA'S GREATEST PASTIME -- reveals an insider's view of a miraculous season of wins that excited Gamecock Nation fans and will thrill everyone who loves baseball, young or old!
