"Being a baseball maniac is a condition which cannot be cured--it can only be treated. So take two chapters of Bert Sugar's book--and then call him in the morning."--Bob Costas

"Aside from his chapeau, Bert Sugar has been best known for his extraordinary knowledge of the squared circle, the prize ring. Now it turns out he also knows more than a bit about the game where the balls are stitched. The Baseball Maniac's Almanac is intriguing and inventive. Where else could you find the names of batting champions who didn't hit a single homer all season, or sluggers with more RBI's than games played, or learn which manager picked up the most victories while at the uncertain helm of the St. Louis Browns? Most baseball numbers books leave me glazed and dazed. This one, like baseball itself, is wonderful fun."--Roger Kahn, author
"Bert Sugar's treasure trove of baseball nuggets belongs not only in Cooperstown but the Library of Congress--or the House of Astrology. Where else can you discover that Willie McCovey has more home runs (521) than any Capricorn ever born?"--Jon Saraceno, USA Today
