Summary:
"For new and seasoned fans alike, this visual guide demystifies baseball's every rule"-- Provided by publisher.
Whether you're new to the game or a seasoned fan we wrote and designed this guide for everyone -- novice to expert, young and old. While the official rules of baseball contain all the information you might need, they aren't easy to read. Searching through them is like reading a legal document, and nothing is explained very well. Our book solves those issues. Baseball is a lot more fun when you know the rules. While some rules are very well-known, many are obscure. Understanding the rules keeps you ahead of the game, your know-it-all friends, and sometimes even the umpires. We designed this book as a field guide that lets you quickly look up a rule as the game is taking place. While you may choose to read it cover to cover, it's also a great book to have at your side as you're at the stadium -- or to pick up once in a while to brush up on some rules. -- Provided by publisher.
