USA Today says about Pinstripe Defection, "Facing the New York
Yankees on the field is one thing, but dealing with the powerful
franchise in the international arena and legal proceedings can be
just as formidable - and eye-opening." A season of baseball can be
made or broken by the right players, so with billions of dollars a
year flowing through the world of professional baseball, it's easy
to see why scouts who discover the next star player might bend a
few rules. It's easy to see, too, why a team might make promises it
might not keep in order to sign a talented young player, recently
defected from Cuba. International baseball scouting can sometimes
seem like the back room of a prohibition-era speakeasy -- dark,
daunting and, often times, corrupt. This world was revealed to
Jason Browning, a twenty-nine-year-old Arkansas attorney during his
five year battle with one of the most powerful sports franchises in
the world, the New York Yankees. Along the way, the attorney
uncovered evidence of other under-the-table dealings.
