Title:  Baseball's Biggest Bloopers: The Games That Got Away
AuthorDan Gutman

Reviewed by: David W . '12

This book is about big mistakes that happened throughout the history of major league baseball. My favorite story is about a ball going through the legs of the Red Sox first baseman, Bill Buckner. If he had made the play, that play would have ended the world series game with a Red Sox win. Other stories include: a story about the world's fastest man, Herb Washington being picked off first base; and one about a catcher tripping on his own mask while trying to catch a foul ball.

I recommend this book to anyone who likes baseball and to someone who can appreciate the humor of someone else's mistakes.
