OUR LUGNUTS; Year One! remembers a magical year of baseball in Lansing, Michigan. From the profiles of determined players to the high drama of unique games, OUR LUGNUTS shares memories of a minor league team's inaugural season. Narrating a season both fascinating and funny, and both poignant and immensely popular, OUR LUGNUTS serves as a primer for the new fan of minor league baseball and as a collectible for the longtime enthusiast. Included in the 129 pages of text are 16 pages of personal photos which recall and explore the strong bonds between ball players and between the Lugnuts and their fans. Here is the story of why first year attendance rocketed to 538,326 for a "single-A" team! Wrapped around this keepsake is a shiny montage of colorful photos creating a cover worthy of a baseball card collector. Enjoy.
