Meer over het boek

Focusing on the heartbreak inherent in baseball, the book chronicles the stories of pitchers who came agonizingly close to achieving perfect games from 1908 to 2015. It highlights the journeys of sixteen men, including George "Hooks" Wiltse and "Hard Luck" Harvey Haddix, whose near-perfect performances exemplify the emotional investment fans have in the sport. Through these poignant tales, the author explores the deeper themes of failure and resilience in baseball, revealing how these "almosts" resonate with the essence of the game.
