Description
At eighty, the celebrated baseball writer turns his attention to David Cone, creating both an intimate portrait of a remarkable pitcher and a searching study of pitching itself. Through Cone’s career, preparation, ingenuity, pressure, and resilience, the book explores the intricate mental and physical demands of standing alone on the mound. Rich with close observation, baseball history, and vivid insight into the people behind the statistics, it captures the drama of the game in Angell’s nuanced, lyrical, and deeply human style.
