商品簡介
Growing out of a lifelong love of baseball, Laing’s book recounts the story of baseball in Troy, New York, and the surprising preeminence of Troy in the development of the national pastime. “Haymaker,” describing a tough-minded working class individual who becomes successful through a combination of grit, perseverance, and native intelligence, became current during the first fifty years of organized baseball in Troy. In the mid-nineteenth century baseball served as a source of unification and fostered civic pride, which allowed Troy’s disparate elements to coalesce into an “American” activity, bringing a regional and even national notoriety--with four players making it to the Hall of Fame. Seven chapters are: Troy baseball in the amateur and early professional era; the Collar City rides high; the National Association and the wilds of independent baseball; National Leaguers at the gates of Troy; the fall of the Trojans; a minor league city on the Hudson; the legacy of the Haymakers.
