Publisher's Synopsis
Everyone knows that baseball is a game of intricate regulations, but it turns out to be even more complicated than we realize. What truly governs the Major League game is a set of unwritten rules, some of which are openly discussed and some of which only a minority of players are aware of. In The Baseball Codes, old-timers and all-time greats share their insights into the game's most hallowed, and least known, traditions. For learned and casual baseball fans alike, the result is illuminating and wholly entertaining.
