Hardback. If an umpire could steal the show in a Major League game, the author might well have been the one to do it.

This book tells his story. Num Pages: 240 pages, 16 photographs, 1 illustration. BIC Classification: BM; WSJT. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 5487 x 3556 x 22. Weight in Grams: 435.
