Baseball, Hörbuch, Digital, 412min
The companion to Ken Burns’s magnificent PBS television series—updated and expanded to coincide with the broadcast of a new, two-part "Tenth Inning" directed with Lynn Novick. The authors of the acclaimed and best-selling The Civil War, Jazz, and The War turn to another uniquely American phenomenon: baseball. Geoffrey C. Ward's and Ken Burns’s moving and fascinating history of the game goes beyond stolen bases, double plays, and home runs to demonstrate how baseball has been influenced by, and has in turn influenced, American life. The audiobook covers every milestone of the game, from the rules drawn up in 1845 by Alexander Cartwright to the American League’s introduction of the designated hitter in 1973; from the 1924 Negro World Series to Jack Roosevelt Robinson’s major-league debut; from the first curve ball in 1867 to Nolan Ryan’s seventh and last no-hitter in 1991. This new edition brings the authors’ monumental work into the 21st century: steroids, home-run records, the rise of Latino players, the long-awaited Red Sox World Series victory, and so much more. Baseball is an audiobook that speaks to all Americans. Language: English. Narrator: Ken Burns. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/rand/002396/bk_rand_002396_sample.mp3.

Swing and a Hit (eBook, ePUB)
The fun and fiery memoir of All Star Yankee and five-time World Champion, Paul O'Neill. In SWING AND A HIT, O'Neill elaborates on his most important hitting principles, lessons, and memories-exploring those elements across ten chapters (to align with the nine innings of a baseball game and one extra inning). Here, O'Neill, with his intense temperament, describes what he did as a hitter, how he adjusted to pitchers, how he boosted his confidence, how he battled with umpires (and water coolers), and what advice he would give to current hitters. O'Neill has always been a tough out at the plate. Recalling how he started to swing at bat as a two-year-old and kept swinging it professionally until he was thirty-eight, O'Neill provides constant insights into the beauty and frustration of playing baseball. The legendary Ted Williams said using a round bat to hit a round ball is the most difficult thing to do in sports. Naturally, O'Neill, who once received a surprise call from Williams that was filled with hitting advice, agrees. SWING AND A HIT features O'Neill's most thoughtful revelations and offers clubhouse stories from some of the biggest names in Major League Baseball-hitters, managers, and teammates like Joe Torre, Derek Jeter, Don Mattingly, Pete Rose, and Bernie Williams. Remember, O'Neill, ever the perfectionist, was the type of hitter who believed that pitchers didn't ever get him out. For that incredible reason and so many others, SWING AND A HIT is essential reading for any baseball fan.- Shop: buecher

Touched in All the Right Places , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 30min, (USK 18)
Of course, I'll go. Natasha said as she looked into Andrew's eyes. Andrew sat at the bar as he enjoyed Natasha's conversation and a few virgin drinks. He admired her astonishing body, from her beautiful hair, to her large breasts, down to her thick hips and her long legs. Andrew was exceptionally drawn in by her thick, plump lips that he loved to make curl into the most beautiful smile that he had ever seen. He realized that just being able to spend these few hours talking to her was worth it to have missed out on throwing a no-hitter for his retirement game. ungekürzt. Language: English.
