Rawlings Presents Big Stix: The Greatest Hitters in the History of the Major Leagues

Enhanced throughout with color photography, Rawlings Presents Big Stix: The Greatest Hitters In The History Of The Major Leagues showcases the top twenty-five hitters in the history of major league baseball. Veteran baseball writer Rob Rains presents a carefully documented and descriptive analysis of baseball's all time great hitters and establishes a ranking for them that is fair and balanced. This is no easy task as the hitter's are drawn from different eras of the game from the legendary Babe Ruth to the 2003 baseball season phenomena of the San Francisco Giants' Barry Bonds. Incidentally, the Rawlings referred to in the title is the Rawlings Sporting Goods company which has a long history of providing players their bat of choice. Rawlings Presents Big Stix is a welcome and recommended addition to any dedicated baseball fan's personal reading list -- and will serve as the catalyst for many a spirited bar room or ball park discussion on the subject of baseball's best and brightest hitters.
