false 3168708 1 <B>A brilliant analysis of the game of baseball from two women who think everyone should be a baseball fan.</B><BR><BR>For years, Deidre Silva and Jackie Koney figured that men simply knew more about baseball than they did. They tried to reconcile their love of baseball with their second-class fan status, but they finally realized that not getting in a tizzy over the 1952 World Series didn't mean that they weren't "real" fans. As loyal&#151;but not insane or stat-obsessed&#151;spectators, they simply had a different perspective. In <I>It Takes More Than Balls</I> they share their brand of baseball passion with lifelong fans and the "baseball curious" of either gender. Offering anecdotes and gossip from the ballpark, the book also explains the nuances of today's game that will help readers enjoy their next (or first) baseball outing. 20 b/w illustrations. 3200788 1 4 2008 It Takes More Than Balls: The Savvy Girls' Guide to Understanding and Enjoying Baseball total:5|5:0|4:2|3:2|2:1|1:0| 5 16 6 3 3168708 1602396310 9781602396319 5 3 3.20 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3168708.It_Takes_More_Than_Balls_The_Savvy_Girls_Guide_to_Understanding_and_Enjoying_Baseball 2 0 false Sat Jun 27 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 09 14:23:49 -0700 2008 Sat Jun 27 08:11:31 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3168708 1602396310 9781602396319 5 3 3.20 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3168708.It_Takes_More_Than_Balls_The_Savvy_Girls_Guide_to_Understanding_and_Enjoying_Baseball 4 0 false Tue Jun 24 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 15 18:23:14 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 24 20:22:13 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3168708 1602396310 9781602396319 5 3 3.20 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3168708.It_Takes_More_Than_Balls_The_Savvy_Girls_Guide_to_Understanding_and_Enjoying_Baseball 4 0 false Sun Jun 29 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 24 17:25:50 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 30 12:10:14 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3168708 1602396310 9781602396319 5 3 3.20 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3168708.It_Takes_More_Than_Balls_The_Savvy_Girls_Guide_to_Understanding_and_Enjoying_Baseball 3 0 false Fri May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 08 07:35:37 -0700 2009 Tue Nov 17 07:32:20 -0800 2009 3168708 1602396310 9781602396319 5 3 3.20 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3168708.It_Takes_More_Than_Balls_The_Savvy_Girls_Guide_to_Understanding_and_Enjoying_Baseball 3 0 false Fri Dec 19 09:45:33 -0800 2008 Sat Aug 23 18:51:04 -0700 2008 Fri Dec 19 09:45:33 -0800 2008 3168708 1602396310 9781602396319 5 3 3.20 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3168708.It_Takes_More_Than_Balls_The_Savvy_Girls_Guide_to_Understanding_and_Enjoying_Baseball 0 0 false Sat Jun 14 08:18:51 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 02 07:55:50 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=3168708
