Unofficial Guide to Baseball's Most Unusual Records

Discover who holds the record for sitting on birthday cakes, opening beer bottles with one eye socket, having the most marijuana-growing convictions, inflicting the most horrendous injuries in a fight and for being the game's most outstanding one-legged pitcher -- plus the skinny on the owners, the umps and the off-field antics of summer's game. This insider's guide goes far beyond the standard statistical fare to reveal the underbelly of baseball arcana, presenting records not only of rare achievement but also of abject failure -- weird facts and stats that answer the questions often asked but for which, until now, trivia hounds could find no answers.
