In Media's Yankee Obsession Misses Baseball's Heart, Gary Thatcher critiques the media's overwhelming focus on the New York Yankees, arguing it undermines baseball's true spirit. Through vivid examples and analysis, Thatcher reveals how this bias sidelines smaller-market teams like the Royals, Rays, and Rockies, distorting the sport's narrative and alienating fans. He advocates for a media shift that celebrates all 30 teams, ensuring baseball remains inclusive. This book is essential for those who love the sport and believe in its power to unite communities, offering a compelling case for more balanced and equitable coverage.
