These and dozens more are recounted in this book chronicling hallmark days in all 12 months of the year. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e From the first no-hitter in modern baseball (maybe) to the deep roots for the first night game in the major leagues, this book paints a detailed narrative of the game's most important moments, told in 31 singular, remarkable days. Covering the long path to integration, the rise of Dominican players in the game and the infamous banning of the splitter, this Advent calendar of the diamond covers baseball from every angle, and every month of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Phil Coffin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1476695970\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476695976\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/23\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.39d","brand":"Phil Coffin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110928371967,"sku":"9781476695976","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bc49994a-3877-4741-ad89-829938a30af2.jpg?v=1725470175","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-baseball-book-of-days-phil-coffin-9781476695976","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
