Summary of Tom Browning's Tales from the Reds Dugout

Fans can join former Cincinnati Reds pitcher Tom Browning for legendary tales of festivity (the 1990 World Series championship), immortality (a perfect game in 1988), and a bit of eccentricity (life with Marge Schott). He tries to answer a variety of questions that fans have been asking for years: What was his reaction to the lifetime suspension of his manager and friend, Pete Rose? How did a ragtag group of Cincinnati ballplayers topple the mighty Oakland A's in the 1990 Fall Classic? Was that really Tom on a Sheffield Avenue rooftop - in uniform - during a 1993 Reds-Cubs game at Wrigley Field? The former All-Star recounts these gems and many more in the much-anticipated Tom Browning's Tales from the Reds Dugout.

In the book, Browning offers stories and anecdotes about some of the biggest names in Reds history, including Pete Rose, Tony Perez, Marge Schott, Lou Piniella, Eric Davis, Dave Parker, Buddy Bell, Barry Larkin, Joe Nuxhall, Jim Kaat, Rob Dibble, Mario Soto, and Jose Rijo. It contains an entire chapter on Browning's perfect game, considered to be one of the greatest moments in club history, in one of the first behind-the-scenes accounts of that remarkable performance. Tom Browning's Tales from the Red Dugout also provides an insider's look at two of the most controversial figures in Reds' and baseball history, Rose and Schott, along with numerous photographs from Browning's personal collection.
