A collection of baseball quotes and bloopers recounts the story of the
1912 dropped fly ball, Bill Buckner's bungling of an easy grounder in
the 1986 World Series, and the most famous mistake in baseball
history.
Some ball players are remembered for their home runs and great
plays--but imagine being famous for blowing the game. Offering
play-by-play descriptions of the games, historical trivia, and lifetime
statistics of key players, this book shows how life goes on even after
the worst moments--and how a little mistake can sometimes make a very
big difference.
