Extra Innings: More Baseball Between the Numbers from the Team

Extra Innings: More Baseball Between the Numbers from the Team at Baseball Prospectus

In 1996, a brassy young team of fansÂ produced a guide to baseball statistics.Â Printed on a photocopier, its distribution,Â which was in the low hundreds, was limited toÂ friends, family, and die-hard stat heads. SixteenÂ years later, the Baseball Prospectus annualÂ regularly hits best-seller lists and has becomeÂ an indispensable guide for the serious fan.

In Extra Innings, the team at Baseball ProspectusÂ integrates statistics, interviews, and analysis toÂ deliver twenty arguments about todayâ€™s game.Â In the tradition of their seminal book, BaseballÂ Between the Numbers, they take on everything fromÂ steroids to the amateur draft. They probe theÂ impact of managers on the game. They explainÂ the critical art of building a bullpen. In an eraÂ when statistics matter more than ever, Extra InningsÂ is an essential volume for every baseball fan.
