Defensive Baseball

"If Coach Delmonico is writing about baseball I want to read it. He knows the game, knows fundamentals, and best of all he's interesting." -- Joe Garagiola Home runs may bring the loudest cheers but most baseball coaches agree that solid defense in the field inevitably wins more games than raw power at the plate. Author Rod Delmonico, head baseball coach at the University of Tennessee, drives that point home in this book. Making use of scores of photos and diagrams, Delmonico illustrates position-by-position as well as overall team defensive strategies in a concise, easy-to-understand format. Written with both players and coaches in mind, Defensive Baseball is one of the best visual-aid instructional baseball books available.
