One-a-day: Tom Hoffarth

April 2, 2011

Just like the vitamins, only with baseball books.

April is that time of year when our old friend Tom — who writes about sports and sports media for the Los Angeles Daily News — does his “30 baseball books in 30 days” bit. And, just like last year, we’ll be posting his considerations within these “pages.”

Hoffarth includes a generous helping of the meat of each book, followed by his brief but considered opinion.

Day 1: Donnie Baseball: The Definitive Biography of Don Mattingly

Day 2: A Band of Misfits: Tales of the 2010 San Francisco Giants

So far I’m getting a whiff of west Coast bias, but I look for that to change in the days and weeks ahead.
