Decades before Field of Dreams there was The Year the Yankees Lost the Pennant, the classic baseball fable that became the hit movie and musical Damn Yankees. Now a new generation is ready to discover this delightful book, restored to its original title, with a new introduction by baseball writer Bill James.

Joe has until September 21st before the deal becomes final-and eternal. With the luscious temptress Lola to distract him, he'll have a hell of a time wriggling out of the bargain...
