Great insights from a x1sXLosJ7 premier baseball broadcasterBy Dan DaySteve Stone has spent most of his life PNZlsYn3o envolved in the game of baseball. He spent 10 years as a Major League pitcher, F0DYJ2Zmh winning the American League Cy Young Award while with the Baltimore q8iCjBMsL Orioles in 1980. After his playing career Stone became even more famous for 1hMTYQf54 his broadcasting partnership with Harry Caray on WGN's Chicago Cubs gtQGrUEhX coverage. Stone is considered to have one of the best baseball minds in the 2pPrk14eJ business, and he shares his insights in the book "Said In Stone: Your Game, My plRp37CYn Way".The book contains chapters on every position on a baseball diamond. For vUB1SeXrr each position Stone goes into detail on what is required for success. In each yKoyHhrfj chapter Stone points out things that even long-time baseball fans would vryFDDRiC overlook or take for granted. Humorous stories from Stone's playing career are 02csXtrbo also included, usually to prove a point that Stone is trying to make. There are CEorDTcmU also chapters on Managing, The Front Office, The Commissioner, and The bCSMLkN3W Future of the Sport.The wealth of inside knowledge that is in this book, and the ability of the author to explain it in a manner that fans can understand, shows why Stone is one of the best baseball broadcasters working today. This is not a "Moneyball" or stat-obsessed book. It is written by someone who has been around the game for forty years, and who has actually played it. It's kind of a shame that Steve Stone is not in charge of a Major League team. But true baseball fans who want a real informative look at their favorite sport will be glad to be able to listen to Stone on TV, and they will be twice as glad to read this book.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Great for any fan of the gameBy Scott NewtonHe's not the greatest of wordsmiths, but the stories in this book will be a delight for any baseball fan who cares enough to buy a book like this. Love Steve as an analyst and he's got some great insight that is depicted pretty well in this book. Breaks the book into nine chapters where he capitulates the essence of each position through his own (a pitcher's) perspective.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Great Book From a Great Baseball Mind.By JV SmithI don't think there are many people with a greater Baseball mind than Steve Stone. This is a fantastic book, lot's of great insights into the great game and all the positions from a guy who knows. Any Baseball fan will appreciate and enjoy this book. Few in Chicago sports history have been as beloved on both the North and South Sides of the baseball-crazy city as Steve Stonemdash;a privilege that made no small contribution to the incredible stories shared in this fun baseball exploration led by the man himself. Part anecdote and part analysis, the book shares the unique slant of the American League Cy Young Award-winning pitcher and fan-favorite broadcaster on the game that has been his passion for nearly five decades. He starts by analyzin ....
