Seller's Description:
Very good in good jacket. xiv, 370 pages. Illustrations. DJ has wear and soiling, with edge tears and chips. Minor edge soiling. Black dot on bottom edge. Bestselling sportswriter Charley Rosen takes the reader on the wild journey that is the evolution of relief pitching over the years and examines the eccentric characters who have taken on the pressure of closing out games-or not. Bullpen Diaries is full of interviews with key players, coaches, and scouts from around the league; replete with the drama of blown plays and walk-off grand slams; and laced with funny anecdotes about Yankee greats throughout the years. To underscore the drama and difficulty of being a reliever, Rosen uses key games in the 2010 season-acknowledged now as the Year of the Pitcher-to highlight strategies and mistakes, examine relievers on the rise or on the way out, and analyze the teams and the pitchers the Yankees faced. Bullpen Diaries also takes a look at Yankee strategies for success-past, present, and, most important, future. Lastly, Rosen reveals his predictions for 2011 and beyond for baseball's most storied franchise. With insight on current players from around the league and tales of Yankee legends, Stadium history, and the author's Bronx childhood, Bullpen Diaries is a love letter to baseball and a pure joy for all fans of America's favorite pastime. Charles Elliot "Charley" Rosen (born January 18, 1941) is an American author and former basketball coach. From 1983-1986, he was an assistant to Phil Jackson[2] with the Albany Patroons of the Continental Basketball Association (CBA). He also served as head coach of the Patroons, as well as the CBA's Rockford Lightning, Oklahoma City Cavalry and Savannah Spirits. The 6-foot-8 Rosen played college basketball at Hunter College in New York City for three seasons (1959-1962), setting school records for both scoring and rebounding, and earning most valuable player honors each season. After college, he played for Scranton and Camden in the old Eastern Basketball League and taught English at Hofstra University on Long Island. He also served as head coach of the women's basketball team at the State University of New York at New Paltz, a four-year college located between Albany and New York City, and was men's head coach at Bard College during the 1979-80 season, which he chronicled in the book Players and Pretenders. A native of The Bronx, N.Y., Rosen is the author of 16 books about basketball, including The First Tip Off, The House of Moses All-Stars, Barney Polan's Game, No Blood, No Foul, More Than a Game, The Pivotal Season, and The Wizard of Odds. He is a FOXSports analyst and writer. [ He is known for his in-depth analysis and caustic views. He is a lifelong Yankees fan and had a pitching tryout at Yankee Stadium in June, 1963.
