Laguna Beach Books Meet local Author Terry McDermott Sunday June 4 2017.
This is a Laguna Beach Free Event.
Laguna Beach Books Meet the Author is at 4:00pm.
Off Speed: Baseball, Pitching and the Art of Deception contains among other things a history of pitching, a history of personal fandom and a pitch-by-pitch breakdown of a single game – Felix Hernandez’s perfect game on August 15, 2012.
Tracing the evolution of pitching and the pitcher’s art of deception, Off Speed tells the fascinating story of baseball’s 150-year hunt for the perfect pitch.
Using the framework of a single game (nine chapters, nine innings, nine pitches), it explores the history of every type of pitch, combining the folk wisdom of the players with the enormous wealth of new data brought to the sport by the growing legion of statisticians who are transforming many of the sport’s once sacred beliefs.
