In the spring of 1977 Reggie Jackson should have been on top of the world. The best player of the Oakland A's dynasty, which won three straight World Series, he was the first big-money free agent, wooed and flattered by George Steinbrenner into coming to the New York Yankees, which hadn't won a World Series since 1962. But Reggie was about to learn, as he writes in this vivid and surprising memoir, that until his initial experience on the Yankees, "I didn't know what alone meant."

Great anecdotes from Mr. October, Great Background
Revisado: 12-10-17
Would you consider the audio edition of Becoming Mr. October to be better than the print version?
Didn't read the print version.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
Well, Reggie -- of course! But, in addition, some really great stories about guys like Munson, Nettles, Catfish and how those really great early 70's A's teams came together.
Any additional comments?
REG-GIE - doesn't knock it out of the ballpark, but he drives a few into the gap for a great set of stories. This is read by Reggie himself, which is probably the biggest issue. I love Reggie and he puts in a commendable effort for a guy who isn't a performer, but there are stories that he chops up a bit.
Overall, this is a great set of stories for anyone who loves baseball, the Yankees and Mr. October himself.
