More Than a Ballgame
An Inside Look at Minor League Baseball
by Sam
Lazzaro |
- Beginning with a chapter titled "How did I get into this
mess anyway?",
Sam Lazzaro writes of his experiences as a minor-league
baseball
manager, first in Elmira, New York, and then in Salem,
Virginia. He
pulls no punches, writing about the complicated financial
shenanigans
that sometimes took place between the club owners and the
staff and
players, and ends with an overview of the game of baseball
and where it
is headed. An excellent primer for anyone contemplating a
career in
management, or as a player, in America's favorite sport,
full of tales of how baseball clubs are managed behind the
scenes.
