Baseball DIY

Over at the literary blog The Millions there is a very poetic mention of Robert Angell's book, Game Time. (Scroll down to April 20th.) Angell is one of baseball's better writers, for all the best reasons: he can write well anyway, he loves the game and he knows the game. (The last one being a critical component.) Game Time has been out for a couple of years but remains a bit overlooked, which is a shame. As for The Millions, it's great coverage of all kinds of books, both new and old.

If you can't watch a game, then go read a book.
