Cradle of the game : baseball & ballparks in North Carolina / by Cryan, Mark,author.(CARDINAL)295224;
"The glory of North Carolina baseball, past and present, is richly detailed in the second edition of Cradle of the Game: Baseball and Ballparks in North Carolina. The comprehensive volume explores minor-league and leading college ballparks large and small. It will entertain readers interested in Tar Heel State baseball history, and serve as a guide to visitors of today's ballparks. The Tar Heel State has a special place in the baseball world; it's a place where affiliated teams play at almost every level -- from rookie ball to Triple-A -- and college players complete in the NCAA and the Coastal Plain League. In Cradle of the Game, their stories are richly told, with a chapter devoted to each of the teams competing in the state. Author Mark Cryan has many years of North Carolina baseball experience, starting out in the business by working for legendary minor league executive Miles Wolff. Highlights of the book include interviews with Wolff, who talks about his involvement in making Bull Durham, as well as with legendary manager Jack McKeon, who reflects on life in the game." --

100 miles of baseball : fifty games, one summer / by Jacobs, Dale,1966-Author(local)tmpaut723996466724600; Jacobs, Heidi LM,Author(local)tmpaut723996482817800;
Includes bibliographical references (page 353-356).By the end of the 2016 season, Dale Jacobs and Heidi LM Jacobs both finally admitted to themselves and to each other that they were losing interest in the Tigers and, consequently, in baseball itself--a thread that had not only connected the two of them, but brought them together with their families and with their own histories as well. They weren't sure what they were missing, but they had an idea where it might be found: in their own backyard. Drawing a radius of one hundred miles around their home in Windsor, Ontario, Heidi and Dale set a goal of seeing fifty games within that circle in one summer, a schedule that took them across southwestern Ontario and into Michigan and Ohio, from bleachers behind high schools, to manicured university turf, to the steep concrete stands of major league parks. 100 Miles of Baseball is the story of their rediscovery of their love of the game--and with it their relationships, and the region they call home.

Ballpark : the story of America's baseball fields / by Curlee, Lynn,1947-author(CARDINAL)372206;
Includes bibliographical references."If you love baseball, chances are you love one particular ballpark. Boston fans wax poetic about Fenway Park, Cubs fans are adamant that Wrigley Field is the classic ballfield. Busch Stadium is a hit with folks from Missouri, and Yankee fans are passionate about the House That Ruth Built. . . . Besides passionate fans, there's one other thing all ballparks-from the Union Grounds in Brooklyn built in 1862 to the Baltimore Orioles' Camden Yards built in 1992-have in common: Each has its own vibrant and unique history. In Ballpark, Sibert Honor Award winner Lynn Curlee explores both the histories and the cultural significance of America's most famous ballparks. Grand in scope and illustrations, and filled with nifty anecdotes about these "green cathedrals,"Ballpark also explores the changing social climate that accompanied baseball's rise from a minor sport to the national pastime. This is a baseball book like no other"-- Provided by publisher.Ages 7 up
