Coaching Library: One Last Strike by Tony La Russa

Offseason book 3 of 3 for coaches.   One Last Strike by former St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa.  Baseball, unlike a lot of other sports, is a daily grind filled with a lot more failure than success.  La Russa addresses the psychology involved in managing a baseball team of different personalities thru 6 months of competition - building and maintaining team unity thru slumps and clubhouse conflict, resiliency, and accountability.
