Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Josh Pahigian swore off baseball for the first time at age 12 when the ball went through Buckner's legs. He rejoined Red Sox Nation the following March when the Red Sox won their first Spring Training game. He is the author of The Seventh Inning Stretch: Baseball's Most Essential and Inane Debates,101 Baseball Places to See Before You Strike Out (finalist for the 2008 Casey Award), and The Ultimate Minor League Baseball Road-Trip, among other books. Josh has also published short stories in a number of literary journals and has written for several newspapers. He has written articles for a variety of print- and Web-based publications, including the ESPN.com Sports Travel site. He lives in Buxton, Maine.

Kevin O'Connell was born into the baseball abyss that was the rain-soaked Pacific Northwest of the 1960s. He supported the San Francisco Giants as a youngster and then the hapless expansion Seattle Mariners. He is the co-author of a book about the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry. He lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

They've done it again! Years ago two baseball fanatics set out to create a comprehensive guide to all the diverse and fascinating ballparks throughout the country. What they created--part travel manual, part ballpark atlas, part baseball history book, part restaurant and city guide--is every baseball fan's epic adventure. On this, their second Ultimate Baseball Road Trip, the authors updated their information on every venue from Boston to L.A., and they wrote brand new chapters for the brand new parks--the new Yankee Stadium, Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park, the new Busch Stadium in St. Louis, the Mets' Citi Field, San Diego's Petco Park, Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., the Twins' Target Field, and Miami's Marlins Ballpark. Plus, they've added loads of information on how new technology has enhanced the fan experience and changed the game. And they've recorded their very own colorful real-time stories and dialogue at the parks, among the local fans, and hanging out in the Big League cities. It's like you're right there with Josh and Kevin watching the game and yucking it up! Ticket and travel information - The best and worst seats in each park - Folklore and statistics on each park - Each park's trademark foods - Profiles of nearby sports bars and baseball attractions - All the information you need to navigate Major League Baseball on the Internet! Funny, irreverent, and loaded with more than 100 photos, The Ultimate Baseball Road Trip is the go-to guide for every fan's armchair or real-life baseball road trip.
