When we think of baseball, we think of sunny days and leisurely outings at the ballpark--rarely do thoughts of death come to mind. Yet during the game's history, hundreds of players, coaches and spectators have died while playing or watching the National Pastime. In its second edition, this ground-breaking study provides the known details for 150 years of game-related deaths, identifies contributing factors and discusses resulting changes to game rules, protective equipment, crowd control and stadium structures and grounds. Topics covered include pitched and batted-ball fatalities, weather and field condition accidents, structural failures, fatalities from violent or risky behavior and deaths from natural causes.

With a mere two hundred words, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, the gifted American poet, changed the lives of countless numbers of young people by composing his inspiring poem, THE PSALM OF LIFE. Ken Beardslee, in this his sixth book, believes he can change the lives of thousands of young baseball pitchers with his latest effort, MAKING EVERY PITCH COUNT. It is a book of limited pages, easily understood, and in the long run quality always triumphs over quantity. With the lively baseball, the much smaller strike zone, and the lowering of the mound, all present day pitchers are working with a very narrow window to success. With new approaches, and tested theories of his own, the author presents a program that will vastly improve any pitcher's performance. The author's record as an amateur and professional pitcher, and his deep experience as a big league scouting supervisor for the Pittsburgh Pirates, speaks for itself. At Vermontville High School in Michigan, he set seven state pitching records. In addition he holds the national record for strikeouts per batters faced during a high school season, and career. In professional baseball before being injured, he had a seventy five percent winning percentage in the New York Yankee organization. MAKING EVERY PITCH COUNT breaks new ground for pitchers of all ages.

Met and Yankee All-Star pitcher David Cone shares lessons from the World Series and beyond in this essential New York Times bestselling memoir for baseball fans everywhere. "There was a sense about him and an aura about him. Even when he was in trouble, he carried himself like a pitcher who said, 'I'm the man out here.' And he usually was." -- Andy Pettitte on David Cone. To any baseball fan, David Cone was a bold and brilliant pitcher. During his 17-year career, he became a master of the mechanics and mental toughness a pitcher needs to succeed in the major leagues. A five-time All-Star and five-time World Champion now gives his full count -- balls and strikes, errors and outs -- of his colorful life in baseball. From the pitchers he studied to the hitters who infuriated him, Full Count takes readers inside the mind of a thoughtful pitcher, detailing Cone's passion, composure and strategies. The book is also filled with never-before-told stories from the memorable teams Cone played on -- ranging from the infamous late '80s Mets to the Yankee dynasty of the '90s. And, along the way, Full Count offers the lessons baseball taught Cone -- from his mistakes as a young and naive pitcher to outwitting the best hitters in the world -- one pitch at a time.
