Yeah, it’s been almost two months. Work is the primary excuse but that settled down a few weeks ago. I sort of locked myself into Sundays here so usually what happened is, Sunday’s would come, I’d be busy, and I’d put it off. Most likely, I’ll be doing on this on Saturday from here on out (when I do it). I’ve also gotten through a couple of books I want to write about so while I’ve been threatening this for some time, you should see some reviews.
Anyway, here’s your top ten…
1) Yankee For Life
2) Moneyball
3) Yankee Stadium: The Official Retrospective
4) The Natural
5) Living on the Black
6) Shoeless Joe
7) The 33 Year Old Rookie
 Science of Hitting
9) The Soul of Baseball
10) Yankees Stadium: A Tribute
Because it’s been almost two months since the last time I did this, most of the list has turned over. Bobby Murcer’s book comes in at number one and has been near the top since he passed away. I’m not sure why older books like The Natural and Ted Williams’ Science of Hitting have risen other then maybe there hasn’t been much to fill the void. The Shoeless Joe title is a new audiobook version of the classic so if you’re looking for something to listen in the car, that would be a good choice. And then you have not one, but two books on Yankee Stadium.
The hope is to have my review of Working at the Ballpark finished this week. I enjoyed the book, but I want to make sure I tell you why.
