Baseball Hall of Shame™: The Best Of Blooperstown

The classic Hall of Shame series returns from Bruce Nash and Allan Zullo in a kooky collection of all-true bloopers and outrageously funny moments from more than 100 years of baseball history that just aren’t found anywhere else. It’s been a generation since the last edition, and the wait was well worth it, as the authors have stored up amazing new discoveries and mind-boggling modern moments in a laugh-filled journey that reminds us, “It’s okay to screw up– look at these big-leaguers who did!”
