| For more than a century, the game of baseball was resistant to change, and no one knew this better than Bud Selig. As the former owner of the Milwaukee Brewers and the ninth commissioner of Major League Baseball for more than twenty years, Selig ushered in some of the most important, and contro-versial, innovations in the game’s history, modernizing a sport that had remained virtually stagnant since the 1950s. Now he goes inside the most difficult decisions and moments of his career, looking at how he balanced baseball’s storied history with twenty-first century pressures to ensure its future. At once a baseball story, a business saga, and a memoir, For the Good of the Game offers an intimate, fascinating account of transforming an American institution. With his trademark honesty and bluntness, Selig provides an unprecedented look at how baseball faced its demons to become stronger than ever. What emerges is an invigorating portrait of the intersections within baseball—from the players, to the owners, to the teams themselves—and what it takes to make the toughest decisions. |
