“Book Descriptions: The incredible inside story of baseball's last twenty years--and how they completely changed the game.
In the fall of 1992, America's national pastime was in crisis. Fan loyalty was off, revenues were falling, and the game was heading towards a strike that would cancel the 1994 World Series. Then the explosion of steroids changed the game like nothing else before.
For the next two decades, the tug-of-war between three men-commissioner Bud Selig, Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, and union leader Don Fehr-would leave a vast, permanent stamp on the game. Played out against a tableau of stunning athletic feats, high-stakes labor wars, news-making drug policy, and backroom political deals (and with a strong cast of supporting characters, including Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, and Mark McGwire), THE GAME is a rigorously researched exposé of the nation's greatest pastime.
