Bottom of the 33rd: Hope, Redemption, and Baseball's Longest Game
of Dan Barry (Goodreads Author)
Description
âBottom of the 33rd is chaw-chewing, sunflower-spitting, pine tar proof that too much baseball is never enough.â âJane Leavy, author of The Last Boy and Sandy Koufax âWhat a bookâan exquisite exercise in story-telling, democracy and myth-making.â âColum McCann, winner of the National Book Award for Let The Great World Spin From Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Dan Barry comes the beautifully recounted story of the longest game in baseball historyâa tale celebrating not only the robust intensity of baseball, but the aspirational ideal epitomized by the hard-fighting players of the minor leagues. In the tradition of Moneyball, The Last Hero, and Wicked Good Year, Barryâs Bottom of the 33rd is a reaffirming story of the American Dream finding its greatest expression in timeless contests of the Great American Pastime.
