In THE BASEBALL UNCYCLOPEDIA: A HIGHLY OPINIONATED, MYTH-BUSTING GUIDE TO THE GREAT AMERICAN GAME, Pulitzer Prize-nominated author Michael Kun and his co-author (and very funny law partner) Howard Bloom reveal the truth about the tall tales, ill-formed opinions, and widely held misunderstandings that baseball fans have clung to for generations. Kun and Bloom explain that, contrary to popular belief: An American League team is not required to use a designated hitter. Its not always wrong to root against the home team. Joe DiMaggio was never The Greatest Living Baseball Player. Tinkers-to-Evers-to-Chance was not a great double play combination. And Shoeless Joe Jackson did not go barefoot, bat right-handed, or refuse to accept money to throw the World Series. In THE BASEBALL UNCYCLOPEDIA, the authors also offer tips on appropriate ballpark heckling and recount a haunting tale of baseball knowledge used for evil. They have harsh words for the writer responsible for Reggie Jacksons Love Boat appearance. And they reveal shocking information about Moises Alous personal habits that will dismay even the most jaded baseball devotee.
