Like The Martian, Steve Alten dumps his characters in a very dangerous and secluded location and forces them to use their wits to escape. But I’m so glad that I got to experience this story, because it’s certainly given me a lot to think about! If you enjoyed The Martian by Andy Weir, then you will most likely enjoy this book too, although the stories are completely different. I decided to join the blog tour for Vostok rather reluctantly, since I don’t read indie books any more. The nitty-gritty: A thrill ride of a story from start to finish, but it might be just too much for one book.

Every batter in the lineup can crack homers and knows their launch angles. Seemingly every pitcher now throws mid-90s heat and studiously compares their mechanics against the ideal. Over the past twenty years, power and analytics have taken over the game, driving carefully calibrated teams like the Astros to victory. Though this was only one regular season game, the match-up of these two teams demonstrated how Major League Baseball has changed since the early days of Athletics general manager Billy Beane and the publication of Michael Lewis’ classic book. On September 8, 2017, the Oakland A’s faced off against the Houston Astros in a game that would signal the passing of the Moneyball mantle. The former ESPN columnist and analytics pioneer dramatically recreates an action-packed 2017 game between the Oakland A’s and eventual World Series Champion Houston Astros to reveal the myriad ways in which Major League Baseball has changed over the last few decades. |
