From 1956 through 1959, the New York/San Francisco Giants debuted Bill White, Orlando Cepeda, and Willie McCovey at first base; McCovey and Cepeda are in the Hall of Fame, but White (ranked 39th all-time amongst firstbasemen by Bill James in the NBJHBA) was no slouch. He won multiple Gold Gloves and All-star Game nominations, and posted hitting statistics which would be impressive in any era, let alone the pitching-dominated '60's. White then went on to a long career broadcasting Yankees' games, before serving a 5 year hitch as President of the National League. His tenure in that post was certainly eventful; it saw the Pete Rose gambling scandal, a lock-out of the players, skirmishes with the umpires' union, several controversies engendered by wacky Reds' owner Marge Schott, the expansion of the National League, and the destruction of the autonomy of the Commissioner's Office. All together, quite an amazing and accomplished life in the game. As for his memoir: it's a fairly standard Baseball memoir; short paragraphs, simple sentences, nothing which could tax our intelligence or attention spans. The stand out parts of the book are his descriptions of sharing a broadcast booth with Phil Rizzuto, and his accounts of the machinations of the owners through Fay Vincent's bungled Commissionership.
