Reviews

"The game's the thing in this book. Donnelly skillfully recreates the two Yankee wins, amid the usual theatrics of historic Yankee Stadium in New York, and the three Seattle victories in the dreaded Kingdome. Donnelly offers a play-by-play analysis of strategy that heightens the suspense of the most pivotal moments. In his preface, he explains that this Yanks/Mariners series 'was the best baseball I have ever witnessed.' After reading this book, fans will understand why."
*ForeWord Reviews*

"Baseball's Greatest Series chronicles the riveting 1995 American League Division Series battle between the New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners with wit and precision, exploring the divergent background of each franchise with remarkable depth. 'Donnie Baseball,' in the only postseason appearance of his illustrious career, deservedly takes center stage."
