Tony La Russa, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals is a genius when it comes to strategic thinking in baseball. It is 2003 and the Cardinals are playing a 3 game series vs. the Cubs (go cubs) in late season. This is a huge series for both because this series is crucial to go deep into the playoffs. Not only La Russa but also the whole entire Cardinals team along with the Cubs and manager Dusty Baker will have challenges and obstacles to overcome.

I specifically recommend this book to people who love reading about baseball. It also gives information on the miraculous season for both. That is the main reason I liked this book.
