Description

AT BAT-WITH BILL STERN

Baseball is a game rooted deep in the heart of America. I've loved it ever since I was a kid old enough to yell: "Take Me Out to the Ball Game!"

As long as I can remember, I've been hearing stories of baseball...fascinating tales of fabulous heroes from a land where the sun always shines and men never grow old...curious legends that grew stranger with age...yarns that have been handed down with the years as treasured lore.

As I grew older, and fate cast me in the role of a radio sports reporter and storyteller, I've been fortunate to meet many of the heroes, old and new-Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Connie Mack, Grover Cleveland Alexander, Tris Speaker, Leo Durocher, Ted Williams, Bobby Feller and Joe DiMaggio, to name but a handful who have paraded before my microphone. And each in his way has enriched my collection of diamond stories.

Of the countless stories I've heard from baseball men, I've treasured a number to hold, keep and remember.

However, a storyteller who has been sharing his most interesting stories with millions of people finds it difficult to be miserly. Hence, I've chosen my favorites and offer them in print to all my fans for a generous dose of the romance, the glamour, the color, the thrills, the drama, the comedy, and the nostalgia that are all part of this game called baseball.

Maybe I'll score with some and get shut out on others but here they are just as I treasure them in my sports memory book-my favorite baseball stories.
