164.0. "PURE BASEBALL, by Keith Hernandez" by DELNI::CRITZ (Scott Critz, LKG2/1, Pole V3) Tue Apr 12 1994 14:16

    	Was listening to Fresh Air yesterday. It's on NPR with Terri
    	Gross. She was interviewing Keith Hernandez. He's written
    	book called PURE BASEBALL. Intro said something to the effect
    	that most people think baseball is a simple game. In his book,
    	Hernandez takes two games and analyzes the entire games, pitch
    	by pitch.
    
    	Hernandez was really interesting to listen to. He talked a lot
    	about hitting and the ball rotation (or lack thereof) indicates
    	what's coming at you.
    
    	Sounds like a great book.

Read a good review of this one someplace over the weekend.  It must've
been the Sunday paper I think....

They said it was for the "advanced" baseball fan.  I guess that must
mean folks like Glenn Waug-a-main, eh?

I'm going to get it....
