New baseball books hit the shelves for fans to gobble up like an order of Sisig Fries at the Ravine. Please read:K: A History of Baseball in Ten Pitches, by Tyler Kepner, (April 2, 2019, Doubleday, $28.95 list price). I wanted to trace the origins and folklore behind every pitch, from the earliest days of baseball to now, by talking to the guys who know best. This was a fun book to work on, because baseball people love to talk about the game’s unwritten rules. How would they match-up against your rival team’s best players?
