Chapters: Hal Newhouser, Murray Cook, Bill Lajoie, Damon Phillips. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 20. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Harold "Prince Hal" Newhouser (May 20, 1921 November 10, 1998) was an American pitcher for Major League Baseball who played 17 seasons from 1939 to 1955, mostly with the Detroit Tigers of the American League. Newhouser was considered to be the most dominating pitcher of the World War II era of baseball, winning a pitcher's triple crown for the Tigers in 1945. Newhouser was a schoolboy star in his hometown of Detroit, Michigan, signed by the Detroit Tigers in 1939 at the age of 18. He went up to the major league club before the end of the season and made his debut on September 29 of that year. In 1940, he earned a spot on the Tigers out of spring training and remained with the team until 1953. In his first two full big-league seasons, the young left-hander was plagued with control problems, walking more batters than he struck out while posting records of 99 and 911. He improved in 1942 and 1943, posting excellent ERAs, but still losing more than he won on a team with a weak offense. As World War II got under way, the Tigers moved up in the standings because several of their top players, including Newhouser, were classified as 4-F (ineligible to the drafted). Newhouser was 4-F due to a leaky heart valve; he attempted to join the service anyway but was turned down several times. He blossomed all at once in 1944, becoming a dominant pitcher in wartime baseball. That season, Newhouser rang up a 299 record while leading the league in wins and strikeouts (187). His 2.22 ERA was second in the league, as were his 25 complete games and six shutouts. Not coincidentally, the Tigers jumped into contention, finishing second in the American League.

Extrait : Bill McLaren, né en 1923 et mort le 19 janvier 2010, est un ancien journaliste sportif écossais, spécialiste du rugby à XV. Né à Hawick en 1923, il est d'abord un talentueux troisième ligne aile, qui joue en équipe première à Hawick avant d'être engagé dans la Royal Artillery en Italie pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il est aux portes de la sélection écossaise en 1947 quand il contracte la tuberculose : Il passe 19 mois dans un sanatorium avant de prendre une drogue expérimentale qui le guérit. Bill McLaren étudie l'éducation physique et sportive à Aberdeen, et enseigne cette discipline dans plusieurs écoles à Hawick jusqu'en 1987, entraînant plusieurs joueurs qui jouent pour l'Écosse comme Jim Renwick, Colin Deans et Tony Stanger. C'est par sa première expérience de reportage au Hawick Express qu'il se lance lui-même dans une carrière de commentateur sportif, faisant ses débuts à l'antenne nationale de la radio BBC Radio en 1953, pour une défaite de l'Écosse 12-0 contre le pays de Galles . Le passage à la télévision intervient six ans plus tard. La reconnaissance de ses services intervient en novembre 2001, quand il devient le premier non-international à être introduit dans le Temple international de la renommée du rugby à XV. Il prend sa retraite en 2002. Il meurt le 19 Janvier 2010 à l'âge de 86 ans, dans sa ville natale de Hawick. ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
