About the author

A former professional first baseman who played for the New York Giants, St. Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Phillies, Bill White became a full-time sportscaster for 18 years after his playing career ended. White then served as president of the National League from 1989 to 1994.

For years he was sought out by publishers to do his autobio but has always declined. Fortunately, we were able to convince him to go on the record.
