Baseball's Iron Man Cal Ripken Jr., a Tribute

Cal Ripken, perhaps the most beloved athlete in Baltimore history, is expected to be a first-ballot selection into the Baseball Hall of Fame's Class of 2007. This book provides a look at one of baseball's all-time greats through the eyes of fellow colleagues, like managers Earl Weaver and Joe Altobelli; and coaches and players like Rick Dempsey, Terry Crowley, Billy Ripken, Mike Bordick, Chris Hoiles, Andy Etchebarren, Dave Schmidt, and Scott McGregor. They pay tribute to Ripken while providing little-known stories and anecdotes about the man who holds the major league record for most consecutive games played and became one of the sport's most legendary players.Seidel, Jeff is the author of 'Baseball's Iron Man Cal Ripken Jr., a Tribute', published 2007 under ISBN 9781596701724 and ISBN 1596701722.
