From the Publisher:
Minor League ballgames offer a very different experience from the big leagues. The ballparks are much smaller and the players much more accessible. Reasonable ticket prices and between-innings entertainment (dizzy bat races, water balloon tosses) guarantee a fun family outing. Plus, you might get to watch the next Cal Ripken or Derek Jeter play.
Ira Rosen spent several seasons traveling the nation to photograph some of the country's best Minor League ballparks and interview hundreds of current and former Minor and Major League players, managers, and coaches, broadcasters and writers about life in the Minors. This wonderful book, The American Game, covers every level of the Minors, including the Independent Leagues. It's the perfect gift for every baseball fan.
