À propos de ce produit

Product Information

If an umpire could steal the show in a Major League game, Al Clark might well have been the one to do it. Tough but fair, in his thirty years as a professional umpire he took on some of baseball's great umpire baiters. Called Out but Safe is Clark's outspoken and often hilarious account of his life in baseball from umpire school through the highlights to the inglorious end of his stellar career.

Reviews
"Al Clark never threw me out of a game, but Billy Martin wasn't so fortunate. I not only witnessed his confrontations with Al but enjoyed remembering them in this book."--Ron Blomberg, first designated hitter "Some of the nicest conversations I've had in forty-two years of baseball have been with umpires. I loved any time spent with my friend Al Clark. Enjoy some great baseball stories from a man who once had a front-row seat in our great game."--Chris Wheeler, Phillies broadcaster, "Clark, having called well over 3,000 MLB games, offers a perspective that is engaging as well as steeped in personal experience. It will be of interest to any baseball fan."-Brian Renvall, Library Journal, "Some of the nicest conversations I've had in forty-two years of baseball have been with umpires. I loved any time spent with my friend Al Clark. Enjoy some great baseball stories from a man who once had a front-row seat in our great game."-Chris Wheeler, Phillies broadcaster, "Everything about Called Out But Safe is personal, and thank goodness for it."--Don Laible, Utica Observer-Dispatch, "Books from umpires are infrequent and refreshing. . . . It is baseball's timeless field of vision that offers the vantage where Clark made a living for more than twenty-five years. From a reader's perspective it's a point of view worth sharing."-- The Plain Dealer (Cleveland), "Al Clark never threw me out of a game, but Billy Martin wasn't so fortunate. I not only witnessed his confrontations with Al but enjoyed remembering them in this book."-Ron Blomberg, first designated hitter

Avis les plus pertinents

  • A very good read about a very humble man!

    Even better I was with some work, able to find the subject of the book. While I have yet to give him my impressions of it, it's a very good read about being at the top of the world professionally and then hitting rock bottom, It's compelling to read about how he rebuilt himself after hitting that hard ground floor and all would be well served to read it themselves. On a side note, I also wear some protective gear that he endorsed in his former professional career and nothing gets between me and my Al Clark's...nothing!.

  • Great book for a baseball fanatic from the baby boomer generation.

    Al Clark's anecdotes about his memories as an umpire are priceless for the hard core baseball fan. Loved the book.
