Abstract:
On September 1st, 2002, a lifelong fan began publishing a daily account of the Giants’ pennant race, unaware that the team’s unlikely success would soon transform a simple writing exercise into a true journalistic and personal drama that would last through Game Seven of the World Series. Whether he’s cheering in person at the ballpark or catching the score on a hidden radio at a wedding, the author uses humor to relate his anxiety, superstition, and faith.

Witty, insightful, and ultimately poignant, A Classic Fall shows how one man experienced two months that no Giants fan will ever forget.
