In a photo finish for first, my book received 1st, 2nd and 8th place votes from the three judges while the winner received 1st, 2nd and 5th place votes. It was just that close! Congratulations to the winner, Joe Posnanski, and the third place finisher, Steve Geitschier.
Onwards and upwards to SABR’s upcoming contests for the Seymour Medal given to the best work of baseball history or biography and the Larry Ritter Award presented to the best book set primarily in the Deadball Era. I look forward to seeing those results in the coming weeks and months.
If you haven’t picked up your copy yet, order soon before it sells out!
