About this product
Product Information
Cy Young was one of the hardest-throwing pitchers of all time. He recorded three no-hitters--including a perfect game--and accumulated more than 2,800 strikeouts on his way to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Scott H. Longert uses Young's life story to introduce middle-grade readers to the game, explaining balls, strikes, and outs in an easy-to-understand way. Longert narrates each season and each milestone game with an enthusiastic play-by-play that is sure to draw readers into the excitement on the field and in the crowd, fostering a better understanding of and a passion for baseball. Baseball fans today know Cy Young's name chiefly through the award given in his honor each year to the best pitcher in the National and the American Leagues. Denton True "Cyclone" Young won more than five hundred games over a career that spanned four decades, a record that no other major league pitcher has come close to matching. In addition to being the winningest pitcher in baseball history, he was also a kind, self-effacing, and generous man. Born into a farm family in rural Ohio, he never lost touch with the small-town values he grew with.

Reviews
"Well researched and illustrated with archival photos, this biography tells a straightforward story with clarity and plenty of human interest, while providing related information in sidebars. Fans will enjoy learning why Major League Baseball's annual pitching awards honor Young as well as such matters as how the sport's rules have changed over time. An informative sports biography."--Carolyn Phelan, Booklist, "A well-rounded portrait of an athletic giant. Recommended for libraries where baseball is popular."-- School Library Journal, "Young fans of baseball, future pitchers, and the casual reader will be well-served by Scott Longert's portrait of Cy Young, an exceptional individual who has not been given his due in literature written for young people."--Paula Ge, "Hits the mark wonderfully. An educational, and entertaining, lesson for grown-up and youngster alike."--Marc Bona, Cleveland.com, "Young fans of baseball, future pitchers, and the casual reader will be well-served by Scott Longert's portrait of Cy Young, an exceptional individual who has not been given his due in literature written for young people."--Paula Geglein, collection development librarian and juvenile specialist, Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County
