WHEN STAR ATHLETES WERE HEROES… In an era that boasted scores of baseball greats such as Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Jimmie Foxx, Hall of Famer Joe Cronin rose from a seldom used shortstop for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1927 to American League MVP in 1930. Joe went on to become player-manager, general manager and finally American League President, the first player ever to have risen to that office.In Your Face - In Your Heart includes these exciting career highlights: • At 26, the youngest manager to lead his team to the pennant • Sold to the Boston Red Sox for $250,000, the most ever spent at that time for a player at time—even more than was paid for Babe Ruth! • Served as player-manager for the Red Sox for 13 seasons and then general manager for 11 seasons Joe Cronin was a true sports hero. In contrast, today's sports stars are more likely to take the spotlight for their arrests or the use of performance-enhancing drugs than for their athletic prowess. Bob Gorman has given us the story of a humble, hard-working athlete that serves as a reminder of what heroes really are.

Baseball Ratings written by Charles F. Faber and has been published by McFarland this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2016-04-18 with Sports & Recreation categories.
In this third edition of Baseball Ratings, author Charles Faber combines the second edition (“great fodder for arguments”—Booklist) with his book on 19th-century greats, Baseball Pioneers (“very impressive”—Reference and User Services Quarterly; “a notable and ... worthwhile addition”—ARBA), updating the ratings and expanding the commentary in each. The result, Baseball Ratings: The All-Time Best Players at Each Position, 1876 to the Present, is that rarest of rankings books—a time-tested, comprehensive reference work that invites reading. Batters, fielders and pitchers from all major leagues since 1876 are ranked by position and, for pitchers, according to role (e.g., starter, middle reliever, closer) according to career, peak, and per-season achievement. All big league players with at least five years of eligibility are rated, and appendices identify underrated and overrated players, rate multiposition players, and sort the great by handedness.
