Booklist (05/01/12)
Full Text Reviews:
Booklist - 05/01/2012 The revamped Team Spirit series of MLB franchise profiles keeps some of the content from the 2007 editions but adds a good deal of new features and brings each team into the present day. New chapters like “Legend Has It,” which looks at unique team lore, and “Talking Baseball,” which doles out notable quotes from players and managers, help add some personality to each identically structured book. The best new feature is easily the “Great Debates” spread, which will introduce readers to one of the great joys of fandom: the endlessly debatable “what if” questions in which you can prove your passion and knowledge for your team while pooh-poohing your friend for the same. The Oakland Athletics treats readers to a debate weighing pitchers Catfish Hunter and Lefty Grove and compares the 1970s A’s with the 1930s squad. In all, the new content makes it worth your while to update the series, and links to additional online information seal the deal. - Copyright 2012 Booklist.
