Requirements: ePUB Reader, 4.3MB
Overview: In his first diary since Ball Four, Jim Bouton recounts his amazing adventure trying to save an historic ballpark in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Host to organized baseball since 1892, Wahconah Park was soon to be abandoned by the owner of the Pittsfield Mets who would move his team to a new stadium in another town—an all too familiar story.
Enter Bouton and his partners with the best deal ever offered to a community—a locally owned professional baseball team and a privately restored city owned ballpark at no cost to the taxpayers. It was a dream come true for the vast majority of the people of Pittsfield.
But Bouton’s plan was opposed by an elite group of power brokers who wanted to build a new $18.5 million baseball stadium a stadium that the people had voted against three different times!
