New York: Scribner, 2011. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. x, [2], 223, [5] pages. Illustrations. Index. Black mark on bottom edge. A first-hand account of the golden era of baseball from Jackie Robinson's friend, former teammate and featured player in the 2013 biopic "42." Ralph Branca is best known for throwing the pitch that resulted in Bobby Thomson's Shot Heard Round the World, the historic home run that won the pennant for the New York Giants in 1951. Branca was on the losing end of what many consider to be baseball s most thrilling moment. "A Moment in Time" details the remarkable story of a man who could have been destroyed by a supreme professional embarrassment but wasn't. Branca came up as a young phenom, playing for the Brooklyn Dodgers during their heyday. He was a staple of the Dodgers teams in the late 1940s, dominating the National League. "A Moment in Time" offers a rare first-person perspective on the golden era of baseball, opening a window on an amazing world populated by legendary characters such as Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese, Gil Hodges, Leo Durocher, Branch Rickey, and Walter O'Malley. Ralph Branca tells us an entertaining, deeply inspiring, classic baseball tale. More
