Více o knize
The evolution of the baseball catcher is explored through a historical lens, highlighting the significant changes in the position's demands and responsibilities. Initially positioned far from the batter without protective gear, catchers adapted to the introduction of the curveball in the 1870s, requiring extraordinary courage and quick reflexes. This shift not only emphasized the need for exceptional skill but also created a mystique around the position, suggesting that a great catcher could be pivotal to a team's success.
