There are very few major personalities in the world of sports who
have so much to say about our National Pastime. And even fewer who
are as well respected as Bill White.
Bill White, who's now in his mid 70s, was an All-Star first baseman
for many years with the New York Giants, St.Louis Cardinals and
Philadelphia Phillies before launching a stellar broadcasting
career with the New York Yankees for 18 years. He left the
broadcast booth to become the President of the National League for
five years.
A true pioneer as an African-American athlete, sportscaster, and
top baseball executive, White has written his long-awaited
autobiography in which he will be candid, open, and as always, most
forthcoming about his life in baseball. Along the way, White shares
never-before-told stories about his long working relationship with
Phil Rizzutto, insights on George Steinbrenner, Barry Bonds, Reggie
Jackson, Thurman Munson, Bob Gibson, Bart Giamatti, Fay Vincent,
and scores of other top baseball names and Hall of Famers.
Best of all, White built his career on being outspoken, and the
years fortunately have not mellowed him. UPPITY is a baseball
memoir that baseball fans everywhere will be buzzing about.
