"Twice a twenty-game winner, voted the Cy Young Award as best pitcher in his league, one of sixteen men in history to pitch a perfect game, the holder of five World Series rings and a place among the elite pitchers of the nineties, David Cone has been renowned for his pale-faced hostility on the mound and as a poised, highly intelligent spokesman for baseball itself. Cone and Roger Angell have known each other for years, and their conversations and shared emotions as Cone encounters his most difficult season - a battle against the tilted odds of age and injury and luck - keep coming back to the central challenge for a professional: Go out there and be great for us again today."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
