Three Up - Three Down: Pearls of Wisdom

By Merrianna L McCully

This is a book about the love of baseball.

But it isn't your average baseball book.

Whether you're a fan of the sport, a numbers cruncher, or a sucker for inspirational stories of self-made people, Merrianna McCully's Three Up - Three Down has something for you. It tells the true story of her alliance with former pitcher and famous broadcaster Jim Kaat. He finds himself looking for someone to provide top-notch in-game analysis-and that someone turns out to be McCully. It follows her journey of passion for Major League Baseball through multiple television networks and periodicals-all while climbing the ladder at her day job.

She reveals her new concept called "Road map to the Playoffs" and the results of a twenty-five-year study of the "Final Score," which opens a wealth of information that could shake up the way baseball uses Sabermetrics. No one has ever conducted such extensive research before, and the resulting numbers and percentages of winning and losing may blow your mind.

This fifteen-year adventure culminates to a comprehensive analysis of baseball's current trends, what needs to happen to get more runs across the plate, and how one woman becomes a prominent voice in a male-dominated field.
