How does your league handle expansion? How do you value players when the National League has 16 teams? What will standard dollar values mean in 1999? The people who invented the game have the answers. The one and only Official Rule Book and Draft Day Guide answers these questions and many more. The 1999 edition continues the tradition that launched a whole new national pastime, with more tips from more experts than ever before: more strategies, more winning methods and tactics, sharper player comments, and the first 1999 dollar values using post-expansion league size, rosters, and salary caps.

From its modest beginnings in rural America to its current status as an entertainment industry in postindustrial America enjoyed worldwide by millions each season, the linkages between baseball’s evolution and our nation’s history are undeniable. Through war, depression, times of tumultuous upheaval and of great prosperity – baseball has been held up as our national pastime: the single greatest expression of America’s values and ideals. Combining a comprehensive history of the game with broader analyses of America’s historical and cultural developments, National Pastime encapsulates the values that have allowed it to endure: hope, tradition, escape, revolution. While nostalgia, scandal, malaise and triumph are contained within the study of any American historical moment, we see in this book that the tensions and developments within the game of baseball afford the best window into a deeper understanding of America’s past, its purpose, and its principles.
