Starting IX is a baseball history book that combines the stories of baseball's past with the statistics of baseball's present and future. By combining baseball's top metrics and most indelible tales (FIP and Pipp, if you will), a starting lineup for each franchise in baseball history is chosen. Starting IX goes beyond the typical baseball history book in both its scale and its scope. No topic is left uncovered; no question is left unanswered. Who was the best center fielder in Yankees history: Mantle or DiMaggio? What would the all-time, father-son starting lineup look like? How did the MLB career of Carlos Beltran mirror the acting career of Steve Carell? All these questions and many, many (many) more are answered inside these pages. Starting IX is the perfect book for baseball addicts: it makes use of the best and newest metrics the sport has to offer and applies these statistics to age-old baseball questions. Starting IX is also the perfect book for newer baseball fans whose love for the sport may just be blossoming: it relies on the author's contagious love of the game to engage readers from cover-to-cover.
