The former "New York Times" bestseller is now available in trade paperback a quarter century after Golenbock's detailed examination of the 1979 New York Yankees World Series championship became hailed as one of the best baseball books written.
"This" bestselling, highly-acclaimed account is a hilarious but scathing baseball tell-all. After being voted the 1977 American League Cy Young Award winner, Sparky Lyle was rewarded for his efforts by being benched. The Yankees, a leader of free agency, signed Goose Gossage as their closer. Things only went downhill from there and the 1978 season turned out to be one of controversy, firings, fights and acrimony. In short, it was a zoo.
