Acerca de esta escucha

An inside baseball memoir from the game’s first superstar, with a foreword by Chad Harbach

Christy Mathewson was one of the most dominant pitchers ever to play baseball. Posthumously inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame as one of the “Five Immortals,” he was an unstoppable force on the mound, winning at least 22 games for 12 straight seasons and pitching three complete-game shutouts in the 1905 World Series. Pitching in a Pinch, his witty and digestible book of baseball insights, stories, and wisdom, was first published over a hundred years ago and presents listeners with Mathewson’s plainspoken perspective on the diamond of yore - on the players, the chances they took, the jinxes they believed in, and, most of all, their love of the game. Baseball fans will love to listen to first-hand accounts of the infamous Merkle’s Boner incident, Giants manager John McGraw, and the unstoppable Johnny Evers and to learn how much - and just how little - has really changed in a hundred years.

A gem

This book is a gem for baseball fans, especially those interested in the Deadball Era of the early 1900s. So many legendary stars and managers are mentioned, and the stories are fun -- even if sometimes maybe apocryphal. It really makes you feel you're back in the days of flat mitts, baggy uni's and 'inside baseball'. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and wish it could have been longer. Kyle Tait does an excellent job narrating. Highly recommended.

a fun peek into the mind of one of the Greats!

I loved hearing Matty's baseball insights and secrets, and iI love his humble and witty style! I am going to look for the other books he wrote next!
