| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Agility, alertness and ability to make key plays under pressure are the strengths of great second basemen. The ability to pivot a quick double play ball and keep balls from reaching the outfield make second base play a deciding factor in many games. This book examines the lives of the men considered to be the best to have ever played second base in America's favorite past time. Between Nap Lajoie's induction into the Hall of Fame in 1937, Jackie Robinson's induction in 1962 and Ryne Sandberg's induction in 2003, second basemen represent some of the most famous names in Cooperstown.
