These challenging game situations have stumped players, managers--and even umpires! Some are real and some are hypothetical, but each of these 40 tough calls is in the megaleague rule book. There are dozens of great drawings, too.

Baseball Rules,

This review is from: Big League Baseball Puzzlers (Paperback)
I love books like this and recently picked up "Big League Baseball Puzzlers" at a used book sale. It is a great little book to pick up when you have a couple of minutes to kill. Even if the rules/situations were repetitive, reading baseball names that I had forgotten about like Von Hayes, Kurt Stillwell, Dan Pasqua, and Dwight Evans made a worthwhile trip down memory lane.
There are only two objections I had in reading this book. First, there are too many repetitive rules. It seemed half the book was about properly tagging a base or missing a base. Second the author often omits the name of the player the makes the goof, referring to him in general terms to avoid retroactive embarrassment. Still, I would certainly buy this book as gift for a baseball fan.

This review is from: Big League Baseball Puzzlers (Paperback)
While waiting for my older son who was in an appointment, I read this to my younger son to see if he could guess what the umpire's call would be in each situation. We both learned a lot of interesting facts about the rules of baseball. He read the rest with his brother and by himself. I am purchasing a copy for my nephew's birthday. I know he and his dad and brother will really enjoy reading it together.
