57 Outs & 11 Hours in Baseball Purgatory William B Mosley

An entertaining read for all baseball players, coaches and fans, 57 Outs & 11 Hours in Baseball Purgatory is a story about an extraordinary high school baseball team and their 16-hour league championship game. After 5 1/2 hours of baseball on a Friday night, the game was called after the 18th inning because of a city curfew and rescheduled for the following afternoon. This book chronicles the 11 hours between the 18th and 19th innings through the mind of the coach as he struggled to make it through the night and the amazing finish to an incredible season. Complete with newspaper articles, photos and coaching appendix, 57 Outs & 11 Hours in Baseball Purgatory pays tribute to the 2017 Sir Francis Drake Pirates.
