Pride and pinstripes : the Yankees, Mets, and surviving life's challenges

This is the unique story of a beloved baseball man who has carried himself with great dignity through a lifetime of tragedy and triumph. More than a star pitcher and accomplished coach, Mel Stottlemyre has a history that serves as a behind-the-scenes tour of four decades of baseball. From Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford to Dwight Gooden and Darryl Strawberry to Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera, Stottlemyre connected generations of stars during a remarkable career. The fact that he had a complicated, sometimes bitter relationship with George Steinbrenner for thirty years adds a layer of melodrama to the story of one of the classiest men ever to wear pinstripes, for both the Yankees and the Mets.--From publisher description.
