Description
High praise from a myriad of well-known baseball veterans has greeted the release of "Stealing Home." Coach Paul Mainieri of LSU and Florida State skipper Mike Martin both highly recommend the book. Coach Martin says, "If I were starting my coaching or playing career today, this is a book I'd want to read." Coach Mainieri says, "If you plan to coach and want to build a first-class program, put this book on your reading list.""Stealing Home" is an inspirational memoir, based on the author's experiences coaching high school baseball over several decades in four states. Hugo, forced to manufacture runs due to a lack of power hitters at each of his coaching stops, invented and refined a variety of techniques for getting runners to the plate. Players, coaches and fans will thrill to the real life stories of aggressive offensive coaching. Hugo calls for the steal of home with two out in the last inning of a tie game in his school's first playoff appearance in two decades, providing the book with its title. The results are exciting and fascinating.Hugo also recounts strategies that backfired and those that worked wonderfully, describes exciting contests and bizarre umpiring situations with great recall. Descriptions of players with exceptional speed, unorthodox batting styles and high baseball IQs fill these pages. Read this book and you'll always view the game from a different perspective.
