This review is from: Tuned to Baseball (Paperback)

Since Mr. Harwell was/is "tuned to baseball," I was tuned into listening to Mr. Harwell broadcsting the Tigers and sharing these wonderful stories! When I was a child and now as a man, Ernie Harwell is my hero! I am so fortunate to have an autographed copy of this great book by the great announcer/great person!

5.0 out of 5 stars A good, honest look about the game yesterday and today, April 3, 2000

This review is from: Tuned to Baseball (Hardcover)

Ernie Harwell is not only one of baseball's great announcers, but also one of its great men. This memoir chronicles his beginnings as an announcer back in the 30s all the way to the contemporary Detroit Tiger teams he now covers. Tiger fans wil get the most out of it, but the book is filled with "stuff you didn't know" about the great NY and Brooklyn teams in the 50s, as well as stories about many of baseball's notable figures over the last half-century. Written in a warm, home-spun style, this is one volume "purist" baseball fans will want to go out and get.
