The definitive chronicle of a chaotic and unforgettable season,
featuring a heartfelt foreword from Opening Day starter and lifelong
Yankee fan Gerrit Cole
The New York Yankees are unprecedented. With more than twice as many
World Series titles as their closest competitor, the most MVPs and the
most Hall of Fame inductees, there's never been anything quite like the
franchise's storied history.
Then the 2020 season took place, and the greatest team in American
sports found out what "unprecedented" really means.
The Bronx Zoom provides an intimate and engaging look behind the
scenes of a year unlike any other. Veteran reporter Bryan Hoch guides
readers through dizzying twists and turns as the Yankees navigate a
season amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, historic movements for equality and
social justice, and a bitterly contested presidential election.
From a spring training cut short to the postseason's final out, new
insights and anecdotes emerge from countless interviews with players,
executives and Yankees personalities, providing personal perspectives on
the challenges and joys of the 2020 season.
Go behind the scenes with the talented roster, as manager Aaron Boone
pairs his new big-ticket ace with a powerhouse offense alternating
between torrid stretches and lengthy slumps.
Relive the bizarre final showdown against the upstart Tampa Bay Rays,
where the American League East rivals found themselves occupying the
same Southern California hotel while putting championship aspirations on
the line in an empty ballpark.
The Bronx Zoom is a thoroughly reported narrative of a
monumental and defining era of our lives, told with humor and pathos
through the familiar lens of Yankees baseball. No baseball lover or
Yankee fan's library is complete without it.
