Baseball's Greatest Series details what many believe to be the most exciting postseason series in baseball history: the 1995 Division Series between the New York Yankees and the Seattle Mariners.This division series was not simply about two teams playing five postseason games. It was about Ken Griffey Jr., Lou Piniella, Buck Showalter, Gene Michael, Jim Leyritz, Randy Johnson, Wade Boggs, Tony Fernandez, Pat Kelly, Dion James, Darryl Strawberryand many others who changed the course of baseball history . . .A team playing to keep baseball alive in the Pacific NorthwestA manager who was literally managing for his jobA New York sports icon who for one week reminded everybody of the dominating player he had been a decade earlierChris Donnelly's replay of this entire season reminds readers that it was a time when grown men cried their eyes out after defeat, and others, just a few hundred feet away, poured beer and champagne over one another while 57,000 people in Seattle's Kingdome celebrated. Five games they were. Five games that reminded people, after the devastating players' strike in 1994, how great a game baseball is because comebacks are always possible, no matter how great the obstacles may seem.From Don Mattingly's only postseason home run, which caused a near riot, to Edgar Martinez's legendary eleventh inning seriesclinching double, Donnelly chronicles the earlier struggles of both teams during the 1980s, their mid1990s resurgence, all five heartstopping games of the series, and the dramatic and longlasting effects of Seattle's victory. Simply stated, Baseball's Greatest Series hits a home run.
