This is a fascinating side of baseball for on the manager's shoulders fall the problems of all the men connected with a Major League team. The manager of a baseball team is a general, and the success or failure of the baseball tema is his.

You will learn how little incidents may make or break a baseball club in this exciting story of a manager's trials and tribulations rebuilding a team that fell apart the previous year to a pennant contender." - publisher.
