Ann Liguori's Audio Hall of Fame: Duke Snider, Hörbuch, Digital, 19min

Duke Snider played centerfield with the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers until 1962. From 1947 to 1956, Brooklyn ruled the National League, but that wasn't the only item in the news. Snider had a front row seat to the controversy surrounding the brilliant career of Jackie Robinson - they started in the major leagues on the same day. In this candid interview Snider also talks with warmth and humility about the day the Brooklyn Dodgers moved to Los Angeles. Snider is interviewed here by Ann Liguori, award-winning luminary in sports broadcasting with a celebrated career that spans two decades. Liguori has interviewed some of the most legendary sports personalities, drawing out their success stories, their opinions on a variety of issues, and their love of the game. Language: English. Narrator: Ann Liguori. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/sp/made/000303/sp_made_000303_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

The Echoing Green: The Untold Story of Bobby Thomson, Ralph Branca, and the Shot Heard Round the World, Hörbuch, Digital, 351min

The 1951 regular season was as good as over. The Brooklyn Dodgers led the New York Giants by three runs, with just three outs to go in their third and final playoff game. And not once in Major League Baseball's 278 preceding playoff and World Series games had a team overcome a three-run deficit in the ninth inning. But New York rallied, and at 3:58 p.m. on October 3, 1951, Bobby Thomson hit a home run off Ralph Branca. The Giants won the pennant. The Echoing Green follows the reverberations of that one moment, the "Shot Heard Round the World", from the West Wing of the White House to the Sing Sing death house to the Polo Grounds clubhouse, where a home run forever turned hitter and pitcher into hero and goat. It was also in that centerfield block of concrete that, after the home run, a Giant coach tucked away a Wollensak telescope. The spyglass would remain undiscovered until 2001, when, on the jubilee of that home run, Joshua Prager laid bare on the front page of the Wall Street Journal a Giant secret: from July 20, 1951, through the very day of that legendary game, the orange and black stole the finger signals of opposing catchers. The Echoing Green places that revelation at the heart of a larger story, re-creating in extravagant detail the 1951 pennant race and illuminating as never before the impact of both a moment and a long-guarded secret on the lives of Bobby Thomson and Ralph Branca. A wonderfully evocative portrait of the great American pastime, The Echoing Green is baseball history, social history, and biography, and an irresistible listen from any angle. Language: English. Narrator: Joshua Prager. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/sans/000750/bk_sans_000750_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
