Dr. Dale Caldwell, in this groundbreaking book, shares the stories of some of the most extraordinary people who have ever been connected to the amazing sport of tennis. Dale, when he was the first black president of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) Eastern Section, brought the idea of doing an exhibit on the first 100 years of tennis in the African-American community to the ITHF.

"Intelligent Influence In Baseball is a novel concept that goes beyond statistics and anecdotes and has something for everyone, from fans just learning about the game to the most diehard among us."-Mike Lynch, Founder and President of Seamheads.com Baseball is a game played by teams, but it is the individual players, managers, and coaches who eventually become the focal point of our attention. While we as fans each have a favorite team-leading some to callously say that we are rooting for laundry and logos-it is the players who provide the human quality with which we can truly identify. If we didn't know about the players, their strengths and weaknesses and their personality traits and quirks, we would likely lose interest rather quickly in watching the games. When all is said and done, it is the players, and our knowledge of them, that truly drive our interest in the sport, says the foreword. This insightful book delivers on that promise. We say, Play ball!
