Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book embeds the reader in the action by presenting a complete set of instructions on how to play baseball according to the rules and strategies of the early 20th century. The author Connie Mack, one of baseball's greatest figures, and others present clear guidance on all facets of the game, from catching and throwing to hitting and pitching. These tips, when read as a historical document, aid the reader in understanding the evolution of baseball as a sport. Mack's belief that headwork carries the game more than physical prowess shows how the cerebral aspects of baseball which are so fundamental to the sport today were already present in the early 1900s.
