{"product_id":"9781626367616","title":"Cubs by the Numbers: A Complete Team History of the Cubbies by Uniform Number","description":"What do Dizzy Dean, Catfish Metkovich, John  Boccabella, Bill Buckner, Mark Prior, and Kevin  Hart all have in common? They all wore number 22 for the Chicago Cubs, even though seven decades  have passed between the last time Dizzy Dean  buttoned up a Cubs uniform with that number and  the first time reliever Kevin Hart performed the same routine.  Since the Chicago Cubs first adopted uniform numbers in 1932, the team  has handed out only 71 numbers to more than  1,100 players. That's a lot of overlap. It also makes for a lot of good stories. \u003ci\u003eCubs by the  Numbers\u003c\/i\u003e tells those stories for every Cub  since '32, from 1930s outfielder Ethan Allen to current ace Carlos Zambrano. This book lists the  players alphabetically and by number, but the  biographies help trace the history of  baseball's most beloved team in a new way.  For Cubs fans, anyone who ever wore  the uniform is like family. \u003ci\u003eCubs by the  Numbers\u003c\/i\u003e reintroduces readers to some of  their long-lost ancestors, even ones they think  they already know.","brand":"Skyhorse Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134669144304,"sku":"9781626367616","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781626367616_p0.jpg?v=1763865301","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781626367616","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
