To your valuable attention My true histrory of Little unwitting baseball italian heroes that i narrated on my ebook UNDERGROUND DOUBLE PLAY The American Dream of Tomato baseball club Description These stories, that read together could look like a treaty on the game of baseball, will bring you inside the fascinating world of the hit and run. The narration is about true events of fifteen boys who, from an underground parking in downtown Sanremo late seventies, just eleven year old, began to learn the secrets of this art. Two great masters will accompany the 15 little unwitting baseball heroes during this interior growth, conveying to each one their unique and unrepeatable vision of the game, but also of life. Some of them will go on to play in the Italian National Team, one will participate to the Barcellona Olympic Games wearing the National Team uniform 43 times. Two generations later, that same club will form Alex Liddi, the first Italian in history to play in the Major League of Baseball! A sport that gives the chance, to whom is fortunate to learn the secrets and more genuine philosophy, to change forever the relation with reality. This is baseball...... Forward by Giovanni Colantuono, Creator and editorial Director of Baseballmania.it

Those who play baseball are, in my opinion, in some ways special persons. Baseball isn't just any sport, it doesn't just form real athletes. Baseball forms particular men. Like Giovanni Tommasini. A baseball player and today a writer. He passed through that field with a particular shape called a diamond. The green grass, the red dirt; put on a helmet, hold the bat and you are about to enter the batter's box. You against everybody: on that little hill is the pitcher ready to challenge you; all around him, his teammates are ready to eliminate you if the pitcher fails to do so. Giovanni Tommasini lived it on his skin, he experienced what it means to slide on that red dirt to get to the base before the opponent's defenders could get you out. An email, a phone call, and I met Giovanni. After exchanging a word or two I immediately understood how much baseball is still part of his life. Then, when I read Tomato, his first story, I realized how special this Ligurian author is. All the beauty and magic of this sport can be found in his writings, getting inspiration from the birth of the team in the city of Sanremo up to the fabulous story of Alex Liddi. The first real professional Italian Major League player. From Sanremo. Tommasini’s are not just ordinary stories. With his quotes from great writers, composers and poets, he can make baseball a lesson of life. Baseball not only as a team sport, but like a real gym of life. In every position, from pitcher to catcher, from shortstop to the outfield, this sport has something to give. Tommasini writes about the pitcher in Nine Spearheads: “The trajectory requested by the catcher, a dock for the hitter; the bat meeting the pitched ball, the dreamed land on the new world. Heroes. We can be heroes, just for one day and forever”. From there the decision to publish on my website Baseballmania, because I believed right away what Giovanni was proposing me. No one in Italy ever wrote about the baseball the way he did. From the first stories, to those Giovanni wrote later on, something was born also from our exchange of ideas, like the fantastic tale about the life of Agostino Liddi. The origin of Alex Liddi. Then everything happened in a short time, because Tommasini’s tales fly fast, like the 90 miles fastball of a Major League pitcher. Up to this book which collects, like a single theme, all the tales of this great Ligurian writer. The first great baseball writer in Italy. Those who played baseball are special persons. When you will get to the end of this book, you will understand why.
