Pitching In A Pitch - 730

"Pitching in a Pinch," written by Christy Mathewson, is a revised edition with 100 player photos added of the 1912 classic baseball memoir that offers an insider's view of the game during the early 20th century. Mathewson, one of the original five players inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, provides firsthand insights into the world of Major League Baseball during its formative years. The book is a compilation of stories and experiences from Mathewson's career, giving readers a look at the strategies, personalities, and on-field antics of players from his era. Mathewson shares tales of famous games and the thought process behind pitching in critical situations, hence the title "Pitching in a Pinch." He discusses various aspects of the game, such as sign-stealing, the importance of psychology in pitching, and how to play under pressure. The book also highlights his interactions with other baseball legends, the importance of sportsmanship, and the high level of skill required to excel in the major leagues. It's a valuable chronicle that provides a glimpse into the character and mindset of one of the game's greatest pitchers.
