Hardcover_cloth spine. Condition: Near Fine-Collectible. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First printing. Black boards wrapped in red cloth spine w/silver letters. Photos of Gibson pitching for paste downs. DJ design by Todd Radom. Jacket photo by Walter Looss Jr. Spine straight, binding tight, pages clean w/vanilla tone. Not x-library, unclipped ($22.95), unmarked. Mild shelf wear to DJ. Foxing to edges. Secure ship in box w/track #. Few pitchers dominated baseball like Hall of Famer Bob Gibson. In the 1960s, Gibson's lightning fastball, menacing demeanor, and unforgiving attitude toward pitchers vs. batters' rights broke personal records and won championships for the St. Louis Cardinals. In 1968 - The Year of the Pitcher - Gibson posted the astoundingly low ERA of 1.12, prompting new rules to improve hitters' chances. Despite his astonishing exploits and accomplishments, Gibson, a self-described glowering black man who wouldn't make small talk or apologies for pitching inside, could never find a job in a front office. Now with Lonnie Wheeler, co-author of Hank Aaron's bestselling I Had a Hammer, the ace hurler fires off his no-holds-barred reflections on a life in baseball. He recalls barnstorming the Jim Crow Sout. Source: Publisher.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Fine condition dark blue boards with a red spine and white spine lettering contained in a near fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. The upper jacket spine edge has some creasing; the jacket is otherwise in fine condition. Includes Dedications; Introduction; and Acknowledgments. "Two Hall of Famers who dominated their eras take fans inside the lines and explain how the game is really played. Bob Gibson, one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball history, and Reggie Jackson, a five-time World Series winner who is widely regarded as the greatest clutch hitter of the modern era, never faced each other during official play. But now these two legends have teamed up. The result is this entertaining and illuminating examination of the dynamics of the game, from the opposing perspectives of the pitcher and the batter. Using anecdotes from their personal experiences, their deep knowledge of how the game is played on the field and in the mind, and their opinions about the game past and present, Gibson and Jackson explore a variety of topics, including strategies for outsmarting the opponent sixty feet, six inches away; their feelings about umpires; the extent to which catchers, managers, and coaches help or hinder tactics during a game; the mentality required to win in pressure situations; how the game has changed since their playing days; how one relates to teammates; and other aspects of the game that they feel are misunderstood or little understood by the casual fan and even by baseball enthusiasts. [The book] is filled with one-of-a-kind insider stories that feature a who's who of baseball nobility, including Willie Mays, Alex Rodriguez, Hank Aaron, Albert Pujols, Billy Martin, and Joe Torre, to name a few. Here is an invaluable and utterly unique baseball book, written by two of the smartest and greatest men ever to play the game." - from the inner front jacket flap.
