摘要:
The Little League Baseball World Series, played annually in Williamsport, is watched by crowds of 40,000 each year in person, and by more than ten million people on ABC's Wide World of Sports. Lance and Robin Van Auken were given full access to the archives of Little League Baseball, Incorporated, and have created a fully illustrated and comprehensive history." "Play Ball! contains appendixes including winners of all Little League Baseball and Softball World Series, a year-by-year history of Little League, countries in Little League, and some of the famous people who played the game as children, including Kevin Costner, Mark McGwire, Bill Bradley, and U.S. President George W. Bush - the first Little Leaguer to become President of the United States.".
"Play Ball! will interest parents, players past and present, coaches, fans of Little League, general baseball enthusiasts, and anyone who has ever picked up a ball and bat."--BOOK JACKET.
