À propos de cet audio
Scott Miller, award-winning baseball writer, New York Times contributor and coauthor of Ninety Percent Mental, provides an unprecedented look at the job of Major League Baseball managers, showing how they shape the game…and have been shaped by a changing game and nation.
From award-winning national baseball writer Scott Miller, Skipper takes on an ambitious Moneyball-esque premise: a deep dive into the ongoing struggle for control that often takes place behind the scenes between MLB managers and the ownership groups and their data analysts. As Miller says, this struggle “reflects the changing culture and norms of a nation still attempting to come to terms with the technological revolution of the Digital Age, in the authoritative narrative of the evolution of managing in the major leagues.”
Packed with baseball history, interviews with dozens of the MLB's current stars and veterans, and an exclusive, inside look at the day-to-day life of a manager competing for the World Series, LA Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, Skipper is a fascinating look into the highs, the lows, and the inner workings of professional baseball.
