If you love baseball, you'll love "60 From The '60s: 60 Players Who
Made the 1960s Baseball's Real Golden Age." In 60 from the '60s:,
you'll thrill to the glory that was major league baseball in the
1960s. You'll re-live the exploits of some of the best hurlers ever
to toe the pitching rubber, Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson, Jim Bunning,
Whitey Ford, even hapless Roger Craig, who had the misfortune of
being the best pitcher on the worst team in baseball history.
You'll re-discover the exploits of some of the greatest hitters the
game has ever know, Aaron, Clemente, Mays, Mantle, Maris,
Killebrew, McCovey, Yastrzemski, Kaline, Robinson and more. 60 from
the '60s brings together 60 player mini-bios in one volume. Where
were you when Maris blasted #61 ... when Koufax tossed his fourth
no-hitter, fighting through the pain that came with every pitch?
Complete games today are almost as rare as no-hitters. Where were
you when starting pitchers were expected to finish their starts,
and it took a hard-throwing right-hander nicknamed the "Monster of
the Midway" - with a blur of a fastball and enough wildness to keep
hitters swinging from their heels - to set the stage for today's
procession of tag-team relievers? Where were you when Robbie and
Yaz won back-to-back Triple Crowns? And when Denny McLain had more
wins in one season than many of today's pitchers have starts? If
you were there, isn't it time to savor once again baseball the way
it was meant to be played ... 2-hour games with great pitching,
power hitting, and with no free agents, steroids or facial hair to
be found? If the 1960s were before your time, then it's time you
were introduced to players who were legends that walked among us
... and whose accomplishments were as true as their love of the
game.
