About the Book

A complete inning-by-inning account of the games that determined the pennant! Volume I covers the five pre-divisional tiebreakers as well as the American League and National League Championship Series from 1969 to 1976. Relive the drama from some of the most memorable games in baseball history in this first-ever history of the very playoff games that had the World Series on the line.

1948 AL Tiebreaker between the Cleveland Indians and Boston Red Sox
1951 NL Tiebreaker between the New York Giants and Brooklyn Dodgers
1959 NL Tiebreaker between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Milwaukee Braves

1969-1976 ALCS
1969-1976 NLCS

Go back to the Polo Grounds for the Shot Heard Round the World. Be dazzled by the Miracle Mets. Relive the glory years of the Baltimore Orioles. Become an expert on the Swingin' A's and their early 1970s dynasty. Experience the drama of Ya Gotta Believe. See the amazing accomplishments of the Big Red Machine, and take yourself to Yankee Stadium for the incredible pennant-winning home run by Chris Chambliss.

See the playoff performances of all-time greats such as Hank Aaron, Tom Seaver, Duke Snider, Stan Musial, Willie Mays, Don Drysdale, Sandy Koufax, Jim Palmer, Lou Boudreau, Pete Rose, Johnny Bench, Roberto Clemente, Catfish Hunter, Reggie Jackson, and more.

This is functionally an encyclopedia but reads like a storybook. It's a must-have for any baseball fan -- casual or die-hard, new-to-the-game or a fanatic since birth!
