The Baseball Filmography, 1915 through 2001, 2d ed.
Since the first baseball movie (Little Sunset) in 1915, Hollywood has had an on-again, off-again affair with the sport, releasing more than 100 films through 2001. This is a filmography of those films. Each entry contains full cast and credits, a synopsis, and a critique of the movie. Behind-the-scenes and background information is included, and two sections cover baseball shorts and depictions of the game in non-baseball films. An extensive bibliography completes the work.
The Boy Who Knew Too Much
"Mommy, I used to be a tall baseball player."Yes, you will be a tall baseball player someday."With a look of exasperation, he stomped his foot and hollered."No! I was a tall baseball player—tall like Daddy!" What was my son trying to say to me? Did he mean . . . he couldn’t mean . . . was he trying to tell me that he was a grown-up in a previous lifetime?At the tender age of two, baseball prodigy Christian Haupt began sharing vivid memories of being a baseball player in the 1920s and ’30s. From riding cross-country on trains, to his fierce rivalry with Babe Ruth, Christian described historical facts about the life of American hero and baseball legend Lou Gehrig that he could not have possibly known at the time.Distraught by her son’s uncanny revelations, Christian’s mother, Cathy, embarked on a sacred journey of discovery that would shake her beliefs to the core and forever change her views on life and death.In this compelling and heartwarming memoir, Cathy Byrd shares her remarkable experiences, the lessons she learned as she searched to find answers to this great mystery, and a story of healing in the lives of these intertwined souls.The Boy Who Knew Too Much will inspire even the greatest skeptics to consider the possibility that love never dies.
The Name Game
Never before has the concept of name-calling been more lucrative. The merchandising of sports team-name paraphernalia is a multi-billion dollar business. Where the names of some sports franchises are rich with tradition, others simply hope to get rich in a world where merchandising is king, cashing in on eye-catching marketing concepts to sell T-shirts and baseball caps. Some of these nickname histories will stump even the most trivia-obsessed among you. This book explains the names for all 116 Canadian and American professional sports clubs plus 150 college teams and more than 100 of the weirdest and wackiest names from other sports or leagues.
