Description
“Entertaining and important, For the Good of the Game is filled with
details and up-close insights into the business, the competition, and
the innovation challenges and successes of Major League Baseball,
offering a depth of understanding that fans rarely get.― (- Tony La
Russa)“Bud Seligâ€s career in baseball demonstrates the power of
persistence. From the highest levels of our great game, he has always
remained a loyal fan first. Budâ€s insights on a life in our National
Pastime are unlike any other.― (—Hall of Famer JOE TORRE, MLBâ€s
chief baseball officer and four-time world champion manager of the New
York Yankees)“Bud and I have been the best of friends for more than
sixty years. I am so proud of Bud for writing the book. It shows why he
is in the Baseball Hall of Fame.” (- Hank Aaron)“Iâ€ve never met an
owner, or a commissioner, who loves the game, and cares for it, more
than Bud Selig. In this book he reveals how he modernized baseballâ€s
economics and repaired the game when steroids threatened it, with
fascinating details and admirable perspective.―  (- Tim Kurkjian,
ESPN baseball analyst)“This in-the-trenches memoir provides us with
Budâ€s full take on the controversies, regrets, and many significant
achievements that marked the tenure of one of sports most consequential
commissioners.―    (- Bob Costas)“Charming, informative and even
entertaining. Seligâ€s book is about the best memoir you can hope to
read from a powerful professional sports insider. Much of that is due to
the deep love and respect that Selig carries for the game of baseball.”
(- NPR)“Seligâ€s testimony is a necessary addition to baseball
history.― (- Washington Post)“Baseball fans will appreciate Seligâ€s
coverage of the key issues that arose during his tenure, the financial
resurgence of baseball, and the spread of the game around the world.―
(Kirkus Reviews) Read more For more than a century, the game of baseball
was resistant to change—owners, managers, players, and fans were all
against it. No one knew this better than Bud Selig, who as the former
owner of the Milwaukee Brewers and the ninth commissioner of Major
League Baseball for more than twenty years, brought about more change
during his tenure than his eight predecessors combined. He ushered in
some of the most important, and controversial, innovations in the
gameâ€s history—modernizing a sport that had remained virtually
stagnant since the 1950s, and putting the league on sound financial
footing for the first time in a generation.In this illuminating and
surprising book, Selig goes inside the most difficult decisions and
moments of his career, looking at how he worked to balance baseballâ€s
storied history with the pressures of the twenty-first century to ensure
its future. A fan to the core and a man who came to baseball ownership
because of his unwavering faith that baseball belonged in Milwaukee,
Selig recounts how these twin forces cemented his belief in the unifying
power of baseball, guiding him through his most contentious moments and
allowing him to make his hardest calls, always with an eye on the future
of the sport. Featuring an all-star lineup of the biggest names from the
past forty years of baseball, Selig recalls the vital games, private
moments, and tense conversations heâ€s shared with owners, the players
union, and Hall of Fame players and managers. He also speaks candidly
about the steroid scandal that threatened to destroy the game, telling
his side of the story in full for the first time.At once a baseball
story, a business saga, and a memoir, For the Good of the Game
chronicles Seligâ€s life in the stands, takes fans inside locker rooms
and boardrooms, and offers an intimate, fascinating account of the
frequently messy process involved in transforming an American
institution. 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.
With his trademark honesty and bluntness, Seligâ€s story provides an
unprecedented look at how baseball faced its demons and became stronger
and smarter than ever. Read more See all Editorial Reviews
