Description

The best way to learn about and understand baseball is to go to a game with someone who knows what's going on and who explains it to you play by play. 

The next-best way is to read this book. In my book, I take you to a ballgame, and it's as if I’m sitting next to you. I explain everything, including such things as a double play, the infield fly rule, a ground-rule double, a rundown, a full count, and a sacrifice bunt. By the time you finish my book, you'll know as much about baseball as anyone, except the truly dedicated fan. 

My family has been playing baseball for over a century; one could say that the game is part of my DNA. In June 2013, my book was accepted into the Research Library of the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York.

Baseball: A Casual Fan's Guide

This book is a useful primer if you want to truly understand the fundamentals of this all American game. Perfect for budding fans who want to get a handle on terminology, strategy, and the philosophy of baseball. Britt breaks it down into manageable chunks, thereby demystifying those 9 innings for rookies of any stripe who want to participate in the experience whether they find themselves in the stadium or the living room. Batter Up!

Love this book!

John has such an amazing style of writing. After a short and endearing intro he gets into it. You feel like a friend is causally walking you through all the info about baseball that a seasoned pro would know with some great side notes and factoids. If I had to choose one baseball book for my library or for a friend this would be it.
