Phillies Confidential
This was a pretty good book about the Philadelphia Phillies 2008 Championship season, as told by Gary Matthews, a former all-star player, coach and broadcaster.
The book starts with the end of the 2007, when they were eliminated from the playoffs after they came back from 7 games down with 17 to go. Knowing that they needed another starting pitcher as well as bullpen support, the Phillies got Brad Lidge from Houston, allowing them to put Brett Myers back into the rotation. Losing Aaron Rowland was a big blow, but were able to replace him with Geoff Jenkins. As the season started, Pat Burrell and Chase Utley carried the team after Jimmy Rollins went down. Muddling through the season, the Phillies to fight off the Marlins and Mets in the National League East Division race, and then work their way through the playoffs to win the team's first World Series since 1980. The stories throughout the pages detail select days of the season, with follow-up commentary from Gary Matthews, giving the reader an insider's point of view.
I would recommend the book to any baseball fan, and especially any Phillies fan.
