06-06-2008 - Classmate Mark Pattison Authors 2nd Book
Mark Pattison has co-authored his second book, 'Sock It to 'Em Tigers: The Incredible Story of the 1968 Detroit Tigers', celebrating our legendary home team with many photos and artifacts from the time. A project of the Detroit chapter of the Society for American Baseball Research, this volume gathers the collective efforts of more than sixty SABR members and friends of the non-profit research society and features profiles of every player, coach, broadcaster, and front-office member connected to that great Tigers squad. Included are Hall of Famers Al Kaline and Eddie Mathews, thirty-one-game winner Denny McLain, World Series Most Valuable Player Mickey Lolich, and beloved broadcasters Ernie Harwell and George Kell, plus Norm Cash, Bill Freehan, Willie Horton, Gates Brown, Jim Northrup, and Dick McAuliffe. Forty years later, the team is still the most beloved in Tiger history. The book retails for $24.95 at most major book sellers, including Barnes and Noble, and Borders, and is also available online at Amazon.com. The cover is cleverly designed to replicate a 1968 Topps baseball card. Mark, and his co-author Dave Raglin, hope to do an autograph session at Comerica Park on June 24th, when the Tigers host the Cardinals during '1968 World Series Night'.
