Walter Alston, highly successful manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers at the time, and Don Weiskopf, prolific writer of sports books and articles, combined to produce one of the most authoritative texts ever compiled on baseball. The authors painstakingly break down how baseball should be played, covering batting, bunting, baseball running, pitching, catchers, first baseman, second baseman, shortstop, third baseman, outfielders, psychology of coaching, team offense, team defense, conditioning, professional organization, college and high school organization, youth league organization, and an epilogue. The book contains more than 500 instructional photos. 42 years after it was published, "The Complete Baseball Handbook" remains a highly regarded teaching manual for baseball coaches and players at every level.
