Flip Flop Fly Ball An Infographic Baseball Adventure [Hardcover] CRAIG ROBINSON Books

This book could easily have gotten 5 stars from me. It should have. First, the good. It is a wildly fun book to read with all kinds of delightful insights, kooky and entertaining graphs, and information you would never find anywhere else. It is shared with obvious love by the author who has a brain that seems to think in ways that baseball lovers can truly appreciate. So why 3 stars rather than 4 or 5? He loses a point because although the graphs and charts are fabulous, they are also frequently nearly impossible to decipher. Tiny lines interweaving with other tiny lines with print that would require at times a magnifying glass to figure out. And worse, and completely bewildering, much of the very small font text is in colors that virtually disappear in the background colors. Who edited this? It is as if one guy sent in the charts and another guy totally apart from the first guy picked deep, rich page colors. Two fine ideas that when mixed together left an unreadable mess at times. He also loses a point for immaturity. He writes delightful prose about the game and the beauty around it, then without warning drops in a stupid comment referencing body parts or bodily functions that are not funny nor relevant. Was I offended? No. But those comments are shoved into the writing the way a 14 year old would talk and then giggle afterwards at being "naughty." It came across as juvenile and idiotic.

Flip Flop Fly Ball An Infographic Baseball Adventure [Hardcover] CRAIG ROBINSON Books Reviews

A future gift for a youngish baseball fan who likes facts and trivia about anything. I enjoyed looking thru it myself. Not just an ordinary statistics book. Just happened to see it in a gift store window baseball display, and ordered it from .
I bought this book as I had seen many of the graphics previously and knew that my 11 year old baseball devoted son would like them as well. Little did I know that my 17 year old marginal baseball fan daughter would read and examine every page. Then my wife, who is a little more of a fan than my daughter, spent a lot of time with the book.

Definitely a fun and informative book for the casual or serious baseball fan. The author has a way of looking at baseball in a way most fans do not that gives you a new perspective.
Any baseball fan would love it, and the graphic design is spectacular!
Of course, the statistics are now a tad dated, but for the true fan, that's really not an issue.
Full of tidbits and fun to read!
I don't remember how I came across this book, but I knew it was the perfect gift for my husband. He was pleasantly surprised and has spent quite a bit of time looking at the infographics in this book.
Arrived in perfect condition. Book is amazing. Infographics are great.
I first got turned on to Craig Robinson's quirky and attractive baseball art through UniWatch, and I have become a huge fan of his. As an Englishmen who adopted baseball later in life, he certainly has an affinity and fascination with the game that rivals any American who has grown up with it. As a skilled artist, Craig is able to apply that love for baseball to many gorgeous infographics and drawings that perfectly capture the uniqueness and lore of our national pastime. This book is a must-have for any curious baseball fan, as well as anyone with an appreciation for clean graphic design. Highly recommended.
