Past to present, this book covers baseball in its entirety, from its defining moments on the field to the outside-the-ballpark influences that have shaped the game over the years.

Appendixes provide lists of World Series, batting and homerun champions, perfect games, award winners, and more. A comprehensive collection of baseball’s history, evolution, and memorable moments, Touching All the Bases will entertain, inform, and educate all those interested in baseball, whether a casual fan or a dedicated enthusiast.
