“…we actually incorporate these games and players into our daily life.”

“I really liked the very personal, intimate, simple details of Joseph Sutton’s life with his son vis-à-vis the San Francisco Giants. I think this is what makes sports so important in people’s lives, in that we actually incorporate these games and players into our daily life. I don’t know of any book that shows this so well as Sutton’s The Year the Giants Won the Series.” —Gerald Nicosia, author of Jack Kerouac: The Legacy
