Game Six Cincinnati Boston and the 1975 World Series The Triumph of America's Pastime
Author: Mark Frost
"A wonderful tale about one of the sport's seminal events." — --Publishers Weekly "Basing nearly an entire book on one game demands a deft storyteller's touch, the ability to capture individuals and explore issues while not straying too far from the field. Frost achieves this stylistically and . . . convincingly." — --New York Times Boo...  more » Boston, Tuesday, October 21, 1975. The Red Sox and the Cincinnati Reds have endured an excruciating three-day rain delay. Tonight, at last, they will play Game Six of the World Series. Leading three games to two, Cincinnati hopes to win it all; Boston is desperate to stay alive. But for all the anticipation, nobody could have predicted what a classic it would turn out to be: an extra-innings thriller, created by one of the Big Red Machine's patented comebacks and the Red Sox's improbable late-inning rally; clutch hitting, heart-stopping defensive plays, and more twists and turns than a Grand Prix circuit, climaxed by one of the most famous home runs in baseball history that ended it in the twelfth. From bestselling author Mark Frost, Game Six is an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at what is considered by many to be the greatest baseball game ever played.
