The Baseball Hall of Shame: The Best of Blooperstown
Bruce Nash and Allan Zullo
_Bruce Nash and Allan Zullo created a monster franchise with their Baseball Hall of Shame books published by Pocket in the mid-1980s-early 1990s. Selling over 700,000 copies, and then branching out to other sports (football, golf, etc.), the Hall of Shame titles profiled the most hilarious, ridiculous, unbelievable, and…well… shameful moments in sports on and sometimes off the field. Now Nash and Zullo are writing their newest, biggest and funniest book yet: The Baseball Hall of Shame’s Most Outrageous Moments of All Time!
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of their original Baseball Hall of Shame book, Nash and Zullo have added the last twenty years of shameful baseball stories to some of the classic tales from Volumes 1-4. There’s the story of the spaghetti eating contest (Yankees outfielder Ping Bodie…against an ostrich), and the triple play that occurred without the ball being hit! (Tampa Bay Devil Rays vs. Seattle Mariners). Boneheaded blunders from the dugout to the bullpen, from the clubhouse to the infield, from the pitcher’s mound to the outfield and all points in between, The Baseball Hall of Shame’s Most Outrageous Moments of All Time! will be a big seller.
