520    An unorthodox history of baseball told through the 
       enthralling stories of the game's objects, equipment, and 
       characters. No sport embraces its wild history quite like 
       baseball, especially in memorabilia and objects. Sure, 
       there are baseball cards and team pennants. But there are 
       also huge balls, giant bats, peanuts, cracker jacks, 
       eyeblack, and more, each with a backstory you have to read
       to believe. In THE 34-TON BAT, Sports Illustrated writer 
       Steve Rushin tells the real, unvarnished story of baseball
       through the lens of all the things that make it the game 
       that it is. Rushin weaves these rich stories--from 
       ballpark pipe organs played by malevolent organists to 
       backed up toilets at Ebbets Field--together in their order
       of importance (from most to least) for an entertaining and
       compulsive read, glowing with a deep passion for America's
       Pastime. The perfect holiday gift for casual fans and 
       serious collectors alike, THE 34-TON BAT is a true heavy 
       hitter.
