The Sodfather
The Sodfather chronicles the 80-year career of George Toma, who many consider the greatest groundskeeper of all time. George rose from hardscrabble beginnings in the anthracite coal region of northeastern Pennsylvania to manicure sports fields in stadiums and ballparks all over the world. While doing so, he brought attention, respect and honor to a profession.In many ways George Toma became an artist. Green grasses and artificial turfs were his canvases and Super Bowls his masterpieces. "Nobody alive can carry George's shovel," former Kansas City Chiefs general manager Jim Schaaf said. George has two creeds. The first is a work ethic where one gives his best effort - "and then some." The other is that the best insurance for an athlete is a safe playing field. George's insistence on safe fields created a conflict at times with the NFL and he gives his views as only he can - to the point with no punches pulled. If you treasure people who dedicate their lives to a craft, this book is for you!

Just Add Water
A New York Times bestselling memoir from Olympic gold medalist, world champion, and the most decorated US female Olympian in history: Katie Ledecky. Katie Ledecky has won more individual Olympic races than any female swimmer in history. She is a four-time Olympian, a nine-time gold medalist, a twenty-one-time world champion, eight-time NCAA Champion, and a world record-holder in individual swimming events. At the 2024 Olympics in Paris, she became the most decorated US female Olympian of all time. Time and again, the question is posed to her family, her coaches, and to her--what makes her a champion? Now, for the first time, she shares what it takes to compete at an elite level. Again and again, Ledecky has broken records: those of others and, increasingly, her own. She is both consistent and innovative--consistent at setting goals and shattering them, and innovative in the way she approaches her training. A true competitor, she sets her goals by choosing the ones that feel the scariest. But, crucially, she never sacrifices the joy of competition, even in the face of adversity. Her positive mental outlook and a great support system provides the springboard to her success. Just Add Water charts Ledecky's life in swimming. It details her start in Bethesda, Maryland, where she played sharks and minnows and first discovered the joy of the pool; her early foray into the Olympics at the tender age of fifteen where, as the youngest member of the American team, she stunned everyone by winning her first gold medal; her time balancing competition and her education at Stanford University; how she developed a champion's mindset that has allowed her to persevere through so many meets, even under intense pressure; and how she has maintained her dominance in a sport where success depends on milliseconds. You learn how every element of her life--from the support of her family to the tutelage of her coaches, from her childhood spent in summer league swimming to the bright lights of Olympic pools in London, Rio, and Tokyo--set her up to become the champion she is. In the end, Katie's story is about testing yourself against the difficult, and seeing who you become on the other side.

Batton's proven program, which she calls Equicize, can be used as part of a horseback rider's daily warm-up by targeting specific muscle groups, or it can be a more intense workout in the saddle once or twice a week, making up the bulk of a mounted training session. Easy to learn and flexible by design, riders can pick and choose the Equicize exercises that best address their personal "problem areas," or they can dedicate a specific number of rides per week to performing an entire sequence. As Batton explains, there are literally hundreds of ways to adjust, modify, and adapt this fun fitness program to suit specific circumstances.No matter what level of fitness a rider starts at, when the Equicize system is practiced regularly, everyone will see improvement in balance, strength, coordination, and flexibility. And Batton has made it easy to incorporate her training into the modern rider's full and complex life, with exercises designed to fit seamlessly into time that has already been set aside for grooming, tacking up, and riding. With sensible, achievable goals, easy-to-implement steps, progressive how-to photographs, and dozens of QR codes to scan and view engaging instructional videos to help readers perform the exercises for the best result, this book is both a superb launch point for ambitious riders looking to grow their abilities and a stable lynchpin for those aiming to stay in the game, and in the saddle, as long as possible.

How a Grand Prix dressage ridercompeted at the highest level before finding her way to liberty work, and theextraordinary lessons that molded her perceptions, understandings, and feelingsalong the way."In my eyes," says former Frenchinternational dressage competitor Aliz矇e Froment, "dressage is the journey toperfect communication and absolute harmony between horse and rider." Her ownjourney began on the backs of Shetland ponies under the watchful eyes of hermother and then found its way into jumping competitions, and later on, dressagearenas. Along the way, many horses entered and exited her life, each bringingwith them a depth of personality that steadily built her understanding of therelationship a rider can build with an equine partner.In her deeply personal andstrikingly beautiful book, Froment traces her evolution as a horsewoman, adressage competitor, and now a world-renowned performer and trainer of liberty horses--horses that perform free of anything on their bodies.Readers meet the ponies she learned on, and the challenging mounts that helpedher grow as a junior rider. There were horses she immediately loved and horsesshe had to work to connect with--and eventually there were Mistral and Sultan, who she calls her "yin and yang," and who elevated her aspirations both besideand on the back of a horse. It is with these two special souls that Fromentfurther explored riding the Grand Prix movements with only a neck rope--nobridle or bit, and often bareback as well--and demonstrating to the world thepotential that is there for all riders to enjoy, if they are open to theexperience and are willing to take the time for it to evolve.Readers will be entranced byFroment's willingness to bare her soul, powerfully articulating her feelingswhen confronted with jealousy, with performance expectations, with thepossibility of losing the horse she loved to an unknown buyer, with retiring abeloved partner, and with the changing circumstances and altered allegiances ofher heart when her daughter Louise is born. As tender as a story about riding, competing, and performing with horses at the highest levels can be, The Horses Who Made Me isfirst a story of one woman's personal journey, eternally questioning herself, and second, an inspiration for anyone who is forever striving for a better wayof training horses, because of the profound beauty you just might find.

For readers of H Is for Hawk and Wild, a lyrical memoir and passionate ode to the art of fly fishing and how it can shape a life--by renowned female angler and conservationist Marina Gibson. As her twenty-first birthday approached, Marina Gibson received a unique gift suggestion from her parents, who offered her a choice between fishing rods or jewelry.

It also revealed the barriers that exist for women trying to make it in a tradition-bound and male-dominated world. Tracing the epic, migratory journey of the Atlantic salmon alongside the ups and downs of her personal story, Cast, Catch, Release brings to life the joys of fishing, the spirited quest of the angler, and how these two paths meet on lakes and riverbanks around the world. A love letter to this exhilarating yet serene sport, Gibson shows what it means to find peace and purpose amidst the majesty of the great outdoors.

The Louisville Grays and the Myth of Baseball's First Great Scandal
The National League was in its second season of existence in 1877. In mid-season, the Louisville Grays suddenly took the league by storm and by mid-August were considered a lock to win the pennant. Then, disaster struck. The Grays fell out of first place, and the pennant was lost. Suspicions were high that the club had sold out to gamblers. Three players were tricked into confessing to the selling of exhibition games and were blacklisted from the sport along with a fourth player who refused to cooperate with the investigation. Since then, historians have presented a simple narrative about how the Grays sold the pennant to gamblers, how that treachery was discovered, and the steps that followed. However, none of this is true. For nearly 150 years the story of the Louisville Grays has been told, and the story has been wrong. For the first time, the objective evidence that was there all along is examined in comparison to the narrative that has been told about the Grays. The evidence shows the Grays did not sell the pennant; they simply lost it. This is the story of how Major League Baseball's first great scandal never truly happened.

Pickup Artists
The history of blacktop basketball in fast-paced words and pictures. A New York street hustler. A lonely man in a Maryland prison. A confused Native American on a reservation in Idaho. What do they all have in common? They are among the best pickup basketball players in the country. In Pickup Artists, Lars Anderson and Chad Millman tell the complete story of the street game from its mythical past to its glorious present. Using original reporting to examine the evolution of playground basketball, Anderson and Millman are the first journalists to unravel the thickly woven tapestry of the sport's subculture. Today's super-hyped, corporate-sponsored tournaments weren't always the norm. The foundation of the game was laid with sweat in the 1920s and it has grown from a rudimentary sport to a sophisticated exhibition. Basketball is more than macho melodramas acted out in America's inner cities. It's a town meeting in the heart of Indiana and symbol of freedom for prisoners in jail. Anderson and Millman tap into the essence of pickup basketball, examining its importance everywhere the game is played. They profile not just legends like Earl Marigault and Joe Hammond, but players like Fred "Spook" Stegman, the man who carries the legacy of being the first to connect the playgrounds with colleges, and Gregory Vaughn, whose tragic death in the 1980s exposed the underground world of drugs in basketball. Forget about the NBA and showtime. Pickup basketball is about basketball on the blacktops, at its most basic level. It's about the unusual lives of some of the nation's best players you've never heard of. Until now.

The hosts of the YouTube series Tiger Talk interview coaches and players and take you through the magical 16-0 season.The Massillon Tigers, one of the most envied high school football teams in the nation from one of the most high school football rabid towns in the country, had gone fifty-three years without winning a state championship when they took the field against the Hoban Knights on the brisk night of November 30, 2023, a date no one in Massillon is likely to forget. A thrilling, hard-fought defensive battle ended with the Tigers on top 7-2, and Massillonians erupted in celebration, weeping, hugging complete strangers, and flooding the downtown area for a communal commemoration..As the players and coaches said afterward, this was truly a victory not just for the team, but for all of Massillon, a small town frozen in time for decades even as blue-collar employers fled in droves. The one thing Massillon could, and did, cling to was high school football, an obsession ever since Paul Brown, nicknamed the 'Miracle Man of Massillon," catapulted the team into national prominence by compiling an 80-8-2 record over nine seasons before moving on, first to Ohio State and later to the Cleveland Browns and the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League. In Massillon Against the World, Scott Ryan, an author and lifelong Tiger fan, and Becca Moore, the wife of Massillon's head coach Nate Moore, provide their own, unique personal accounts of the highlights of this unforgettable season-sometimes funny, sometimes emotionally powerful, but always insightful and absorbing-focusing on all of the hardships Massillon had to overcome on its road to victory. Mike Brown, Paul's son, contributes the foreword.

Make It Go in the Snow
Winner of the U.P. Notable Books Award (2024)Through the years, the challenge of powered transportation in the snow has been met with ideas from explorers, creative inventors and small companies, all with new ideas - often unique and sometimes successful. The name "snowmobile" was trademarked in 1917, but there were snow travel ideas before that date and certainly thousands more since.Winter explorers and trailblazers sought to replace their dogsleds and snowshoes as they explored difficult locations, including remote locations, on the north and south poles. Early inventors of snow vehicles often scavenged parts from many mechanical devices, trying many power and propulsion methods, from 2- and 4-stroke engines to air propulsion, and even a "snow biting" screw auger concept.The snow travel ideas from some early inventors were simply designed to solve their own needs; others came from entrepreneurs who believed folks would be impressed and want to buy their creations. Some of their ideas evolved into companies such as Polaris, Arctic Cat and Ski-Doo, which prospered and now can trace their roots back to that first snowmobile idea.Make It Go In The Snow provides a fun look at the history of a few of the many thousands of snow travel ideas and those enthusiasts who gave them birth. Captured and recorded are a wide variety of snowmobile ideas, without offering judgment on any individual venture. Join me as I pay tribute to all those ideas; past, present, and future. But keep watching, because more snow excitement is waiting to be created."I have read many snowmobile books over the years, and I believe Larry Jorgensen's was very informative and easy to read. It shows that Larry has done an excellent job researching information. I have recommended Make It Go In The Snow to all my snowmobiling friends, I look forward to handing out copies to them at Christmas." -- Daniel C. Blaney, Antique Snowmobile Museum, Morocco, Indiana.""Michigan plays a minor yet important part in this detailed history of snowmobiles. The first snowmobile was created in 1913 by a Ford dealer in New Hampshire. He took the rear wheels off a Model T and replaced them with dual wheels covered by tracks and replaced the front wheels with skis. He patented his invention and called it a snowmobile. A company later bought the patent and made 3,500 kits a year. As the author makes it abundantly clear, over the years backyard tinkerers, high schoolers, and just guys with a vision created snowmobiles of all shapes and sizes. If you have any interest in snowmobiles you're going to ski-doo through Make It Go in the Snow." -- Tom Powers, Michigan In Books"Jorgensen purchased his first snowmobile in 1967. Subsequently, he joined a snowmobile enthusiast group and participated in long-distance rides. The most notable was an endurance test from Fairbanks, Alaska to Seattle for the new Allsport Tracker. Pabst Brewing Company contracted him to create its programs for recreational snowmobiling and racing. He's also served on the board of the Central Division of the United States Snowmobile Association (USSA). So immersed in the activity has he been that when one of his children, then a first grader, was asked what her father did, she replied, 'He snowmobiles.' And now he's written of them as well and included a concluding chapter telling of various snowmobile museums he's discovered around the country." -- Helen V.

Searching in St. Andrews
A compelling journey through the heart and soul of golf, bringing the sport's history and the current state of the game to life When Sean Zak arrived in St. Andrews, Scotland--the mecca of golf--he was determined to spend his summer in search of the game's true essence. He found it everywhere--in the dirt, firm and proper, a sandy soil that you don't see in America. He found it in the people who inherited the game from their grandparents, who inherited it from their grandparents. He found it in the structures that prop up the game--cheap memberships and "private courses" that aren't private at all. At every turn he also found LIV Golf, the Saudi-backed entity which descended on the professional circuit during that summer of the 150th Open Championship. Zak's personal personal pilgrimage now offered him a front-row seat at a cultural reckoning, one which pitted the game's longstanding customs against a divisive new force. Searching in St. Andrews is the vivid chronicle of an unforgettable sojourn in the birthplace of golf, informed by sublime mornings on the Old Course playing with just four clubs, evenings spent analyzing legal documents riddled with greed, and the singular characters he encountered along the way. Readers will meet a 92-year-old who just learned how to putt, explore the many differences between Golf Over There and Golf Over Here, and even experience caddying on the PGA Tour, from deciphering the yardage books to keeping your player on time to drinking until sunrise after you've missed the cut. Written with heartfelt curiosity and charm, this is an essential portrait of golf amid the crosswinds of tradition, progress, and power.

Baseball Research Journal (Brj), Volume 53 #1
The Spring 2024 issue of the Baseball Research Journal features fourteen articles covering topics ranging from statistical analysis to nineteenth century baseball from researchers including Alan Cohen, Herm Krabbenhoft, and Woody Eckard, as well as profiles of this year's Henry Chadwick Award winners: Sarah Langs, Larry Gerlach, and Leslie Heaphy. Charlie Pavitt brings us the first of two articles analyzing plummeting batting averages in the major leagues (more than defensive shifts are to blame) and Peter Dreier takes a comprehensive look at how the changes in demographics of the United States are reflected by the representation of Jewish players in major league baseball. ON THE COVER: Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama, is the oldest professional baseball park in the United States. This summer it will add another chapter to its rich history when it hosts the San Francisco Giants and St. Louis Cardinals in an MLB regular-season game. In this issue, John Shorey and Kevin Warneke examine how a game played 100 years ago at Rickwood between the Black Barons and the Cuban Stars was the first major-league game played at the historic ballpark. ALSO IN THIS ISSUE: "Mary Dobkin: Baltimore's Grande Dame of Baseball" by David Krell Mary Dobkin learned English through radio broadcasts and newspapers, which is a familiar tale for twentieth-century immigrants. Baseball was both an outlet and a salve, as she suffered through many operations and medical treatments. "Then one summer she got to attend therapy camp," reads a 1979 Los Angeles Times profile. "From her wheelchair, she was taught to catch and hit a baseball. It was magic. Quiet, reclusive Mary Dobkin returned to the hospital a new person, ignited by direct experience with baseball." She would go on to create and run baseball teams for underprivileged kids for decades, and her life story would become a movie starring Jean Stapleton. "The Ill-Fated Dodgers and Indians World Baseball Tour of 1952" by Matthew Jacob Abe Saperstein is best known as the founder of the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team, but he also was deeply involved in many aspects of professional baseball. With the US State Department's cooperation, Saperstein drafted plans for an international tour by big-league baseball teams in 1952--a trip that one sports editor called "the most ambitious barnstorming tour in the history of baseball." Saperstein's plan called for the Brooklyn Dodgers and Cleveland Indians to play a series of 22 games over a 60-day schedule, beginning in Hawaii and then continuing to Japan, India, Egypt, Australia, and North Africa. The Dodgers and Indians had been the first racially integrated teams in their respective leagues, and Secretary of State Dean Acheson referred to this dynamic as a key reason why the government would back the proposed tour. Because both teams had players "of every nationality, creed, and color," he wrote, the trip would attest to America's democratic values. "'Death to Flying Things' The Life and Times of a Spurious Nickname" by Richard Hershberger "Death to Flying Things" is one of the all-time great baseball nicknames, routinely included in lists of such things. Indeed, it serves double duty, attributed to two players: Robert Ferguson and John Chapman. Both men played for the Atlantic Club of Brooklyn in the 1860s, but, sadly, neither Ferguson nor Chapman was called "Death to Flying Things" during their playing careers, or for many years after. The nickname is entirely spurious. This article will attempt to explain where the supposed nickname came from in the first place, and how it got assigned to two different persons.
