Baseball player and manager Terry Francona and columnist Dan Shaughnessy chronicle a colorful portrait of baseball history as they highlight the Boston Red Sox in all its glory, and its falls as well. The reader is taken behind-the-scenes to learn about the Championships, different personalities of the players, and the changes in the sport from a famous era to the modern-day. The authors portray a popular team, the events on-and-off the field, the reputation of the team, and much more. We learn how good the team played, until Francona left, and the reasons why they fell. Francona tells about the highs-and-lows of the game, what it took to manage the team, and the historical events from Championship to collapse. In addition, the authors include stories about losses, wins, and special moments. We also learn how the team lost their way when money became top priority over winning. My dad followed the Boston Red Sox for many years, always speaking about the glory of this team, and all the changes that took place. This presentation on baseball history, along with managing today's games entertains from beginning to end. This intriguing page-turner grabs the reader's attention immediately, and has you hooked to the very end. Interesting, educational, informative, and enjoyable read. Highly recommended!
There's a saying in Boston that goes something like: "Baseball is not a matter of life and death but The Red Sox are". Oh so true. As a lifelong Sox fan (62 years old), I have seen this franchise fail so often and in such humiliating ways both on and off the field that a World Series championship was never even on my radar.Then in the 2004 ALCS, Tito and his gang rally from a 3 - 0 deficit to the New York Yankees, THE YANKEES, the bane of The Sox very existence, and then go on to sweep the powerful Cardinals to win THE WORLD SERIES!Most fans know these stories but this book pulls no punches revealing the stories behind The Sox' renaissance. Dan Shaughnessey of the Boston Globe co-wrote this book. DS is a long time Globe sports writer famous for his humor, insight and acerbic observations. Together, Tito and DS present so much more than a baseball story. Tito is a baseball man all the way. I hope men like Tito will always be in baseball. They are tough, gritty, committed leaders who labor behind the glitz and glamor of their teams' successes and they take the fall for their teams' failures with fortitude.Francona: The Red Sox Years is a page-turner about a baseball man confronted with many daunting challenges that simply did not exist in 'the old days': Mass media 24x7 in-your-face coverage; mega-million, prima donna players with no sense of responsibility or loyalty to their teammates, team or manager (see the odious Manny Ramirez) and owners who love the spotlight of success but are quick to duck when success is elusive.Francona handled all of these obstacles as well as debilitating injuries from his own baseball career, the torment of divorce along with public betrayal and personal humiliation from a group of owners who derailed The Red Sox and then needed to blame someone. Throughout all of these trials he stood up for his team and quietly tried to salvage a team that was rotting internally from too many toxic, arrogant underachievers brought in by owners who wanted the team to 'be more sexy'.I love this book. I think baseball fans everywhere will find this book worth reading. For a Sox fan it is so interesting, exasperating and inspirational. Francona helped to bring two championships to Boston. All the while he remained a genuine person. This book gives me an appreciation for who Terry Francona really is. Simply, he's a guy from Beaver County PA who loves baseball and he's so grateful that he's been able to have a career doing what he loves. He cares about his players and he wants to win.For any baseball fans, it is a wonderful story of one of the good guys in pro sports and also a window into the unfathomable business of major league baseball. Good luck in Cleveland Tito.
Overall, I enjoyed this (being a Sox and Francona fan), but I had some serious issues with it. One was the choice the write it in third person. If it's Terry Francona's book, it should have been written in first person. It kept jarring me when it would take on the biographic tone rather than autobiographic. Very strange, and I've read many of these co-authored books by sports folks.Because it was basically written by Dan Shaughnessy instead of Francona, that enabled him to write like a journalist, which meant some truly uninteresting reporting. Like is it interesting to anyone reading about Francona's time at Fenway to know where John Henry grew up? As a reader I felt betwixt and between. Was this Shaughnessy's investigative reporting on the destruction of the Red Sox, complete with full biographies of all the players? Or Francona's story and his own personal impressions of the people surrounding him? When it was from Francona's viewpoint, it worked just fine. Much of that bio detail was not important to the story and truly boring.Still, I really liked getting to know Francona through this book, and if you like sports memoirs, you'll probably want to read this one despite its flaws. It taught me a lot about what it is to be a big league manager and provided food for thought as to why Francona might have been unable to right the ship in the end.
...how the Henry-Werner-Lucchino ownership of the Red Sox was virtually impossible to please. How hard it is to lead a team when ownership does not have your back. How predictably political this ownership is. How they could leave Curt Schilling off the invitees of the great 2004 team (that broke the curse of the Bambino) for the recent 2018 World Series. Sox could never have been champs without him! Big franchise owned by small-minded men. Terry was a giant in the industry and with a huge heart for people.
