Publisher's Synopsis
In The Bases Were Loaded (and So Was I), sportswriter Tom Callahan brings to life the most fascinating-and often least understood-figures in the world of sports. This is the ultimate collection of Callahan's sports profiles, with subjects ranging from Muhammad Ali to Pete Rose, and Joe Montana to Michael Jordan. Based on decades of sports reporting as well as featuring material original to this book, The Bases Were Loaded (and So Was I) takes athletes we thought we knew and reveals how wrong we often are. This is a rare and surprising work of reportage that will appeal to sports fans and non-sports fans alike.
