Three Nights in August: Strategy, Heartbreak, and Joy: Inside the Mind of a Manager Audiobook

" GO CARDS! GO TONY! no doubt... the best manager in history! "

" Nice view of baseball from the manager's perspective; very insightful in conveying a manager's game time philosophy, strategy by inning, and decisions behind each at-bat....also explores the impact of video technology on today's game--nice player evaluations as to the what separates an average player from the superstar "

" Seeing the insights of a legendary manager like Tony LaRussa was great "

" I seriously could not put this book down, which surprised the hell out of me. I mean, I love baseball. Don't get me wrong. But a book about three baseball games? Seriously - amazingly good. Of course, it didn't hurt that my two teams (the As and the Mariners) absolutely sucked this summer. I needed a diversion. "

" Quite possibly the best baseball book ever written. If you want insight as to why certain strategies are implemented during a game, this book is for you. On another note, this book single-handedly turned TLR from villain to hero in the city of St. Louis. "

" I really enjoyed this book and I'm a Cub's fan. "

" A wonderful glimpse inside the strategy and beauty of baseball. "

" TLR really loves baseball. Too many tangents in the book, though. "

" wow, great f'n book! Baseball is truly an unholy alliance of chess, poker and blackjack... "

" Maybe I was just jonesing for baseball, but I thoroughly enjoyed this insiders look into the dugout. What more can you ask for than the cubs vs. cards? "

" A great book, especially for anyone that loves baseball, sports, & St Louis Cardinals. As avid fan of baseball and Cardinals, I found it very interesting, and gave me better understanding of Tony, a GREAT Manager. Gave me more respect for him than I already had, which I had plenty before reading. "

" For any baseball (esp. Cardinal!) fan "

" A very interesting read. Bissinger is a little on the cheeseball side, but the subject matter keeps it from getting too groanworthy. "

" Any baseball fan should read this book with its behind-the-scenes look at a great rivalry. It's about the St. Louis Cardinals...nuff said. "

" excellent book- not a huge Tony LaRussa fan but it does explain him pretty well. I love the Cubs-my second favorite team! "

" This one is up there with my favorite books about baseball. If you are any kind of a fan then you will love it. "

" I enjoyed the insight into the game's subtleties that this book explained. Very interesting for any baseball fan. "

" A must read for anyone who loves baseball or wants to coach the greatest game. "

" I bacame fan of Tony LaRussa after reading this book "
