For more than a half century, as a superstar ballplayer, television
broadcaster, and front office executive, Al Kaline has personified
the Detroit Tigers like no one else. In the Tigers' clubhouse of
today, stars such as Miguel Cabrera and Justin Verlander--neither
of whom were even born when he played in the major
leagues--respectfully address him as "Mr. Kaline." Tigers fans
around the country of every generation refer to him simply as "Mr.
Tiger." Now, for the first time, the life and career of this
remarkable individual are presented in this compelling new
biography. Learn how the skinny, shy youngster with a deformed foot
and an undying love for the game of baseball went straight from
high school and the sandlots of Baltimore to the big leagues where,
at the age of 20, he became the youngest batting champion in
baseball history. That achievement marked the start of a
first-ballot Hall of Fame career that would carry him to 3,000 hits
and a plaque on the hallowed wall at Cooperstown.
