Frank pointed out a few nice suggestions. But if you want one baseball gift, get The Glory of Their Times audio CD set. As stated, this is not an audio book. These are actual interviews of players who played a century ago, Sam Crawford, Smokey Joe Wood, Rube Marquard and others. My two favorites are not Hall of Famers but Jimmy Austin and Hans Lobert are terrific interviews. These guys pull no punches. They tell you exactly what it was like and express their true feelings, in their own voices, nonetheless.
This is truly a great item to own.
