Growing the Game: The Globalization of Major League Baseball
Baseball fans are well aware that the game has become increasingly international. Major league rosters include players from no fewer than fourteen countries, and more than one-fourth of all players are foreign born. Here, Alan Klein offers the first full-length study of a sport in the process of globalizing. Looking at the international activities of big-market and small-market baseball teams, as well as the Commissioner’s Office, he examines the ways in which Major League Baseball operates on

Review by John for Official Major League Baseball Game Ball

I was just perusing these at a sporting goods store where they are priced at $12.95 each. (Exact same ball, Rawlings Official MLB. Each comes in its own clear plastic cube sealed with an MLB hologram sticker. Dazzling.) I balked at purchasing because they offer no discount on a dozen, then I thought I might get a better price at Amazon plus not have to package it and stand in line at the post office (it’s for a gift). I am surprised to come here and find the price 65% higher ($21.45 as I type this)! Back to the sporting goods store for me.

I just wanted to second the other review of this item. You can get an official ball for $15 at any sporting goods store in this country, and sometimes you can get the ball for much less. Save yourself the money.

I suspect there are others, and this item is my RED FLAG about pricing items BEFORE I buy on Amazon. Like other reviewer I came here thinking I might get a deal on a $11 or $12 item. I see a “dicounted price” of twice the retail.
Message — price what you buy everywhere. If there were a “no star option” I would take it!

For a fair price you’ll get an excellent game ball for either recreational or league/college use. But if often used, imprint will expire quickly. Surface made of material with good grip for a baseball.

This book by Alan Klein, the leading authority on the social science of baseball, may be his best (he is also the author of Sugarball, and Baseball on the Border). In Growing the Game he unravels MLB’s efforts to expand baseball outside the U.S. Lucid and engaging. Perfect for my Sport, Culture and Society course.

We know how impressive Japan and the Dominican Republic are as baseball playing countries, but Klein goes way beyond that in showing us the rest of the world. This book really gives us a way to look at baseball and globalization. Must reading for baseball fans.

Review by Robert S. Whiting for Growing the Game: The Globalization of Major League Baseball
Rating:
Illuminating look at the changing face of America’s former national pastime and its recent growth around the globe. The research, which includes material on baseball in Italy, Germany and the UK, as well as the usual suspects, is impressive.

Rating:
Remarkable!! Klein’s book is not even out yet, a minor point for M. Torrez who trashes it without having read a word. Readers of these reviews should take note- this space can be a clearing house for people with grudges and agendas. Pay no attention to my rating; I am the author and had to rate the book in order to caution unsuspecting readers.

Growing the Game is just a waste of time and money…The issue of the globalization of baseball has been better analyzed by other authors in the past 5 years!!..Klein is just way out of touch!!…Don’t buy it!
Review by Jack Robertson for Official Major League Baseball Game Ball

…then anything over 13 or 14 bucks is extremely expensive for this model of baseball–Rawlings brand notwithstanding. One wonders how they manage to sell any at all at this rate when less-expensive prices are easily obtainable. Great baseball–no question there–but a lousy deal.
