Growing up in small-town, Depression-era Oklahoma, Mickey Mantle
heard the same plea day in and day out from his parents: ""Get out
of the house and play some baseball!"" Sooner than anyone expected,
Mantle was a New York Yankee in 1951. Five years later, the
switch-hitting phenomenon was on his way to stardom, completing the
season with a Triple Crown for the highest batting average and most
home runs and RBIs. Hailed as the successor to the great Joe
DiMaggio, Mantle felt the pressure of success, and faced
difficulties stemming from physical infirmity and, later, alcohol
abuse. In ""Mickey Mantle"", discover how this baseball great came
to grips with his addiction, becoming a role model for the clean
and sober life, and is now remembered as an American baseball hero.
