With a repertoire of masterful pitches wielded with impeccable command, he piled up accolades during his 16 major league seasons, the very image of stability and dominance whenever he took the mound. Doc is a celebration and a profound remembrance of a beloved player, friend, and family man. Todd Zolecki traces Halladay's remarkable journey, from garnering the attention of major league scouts as a teenager in Colorado, to Halladay's methodical reinvention and ascent to ace status in Toronto, to the signature no-hitter he authored in his playoff debut with the Philadelphia Phillies. Also examined are Halladay's distinctive, disciplined approach to pitching, his impact as a teammate and community member, and the baseball world's honoring of these qualities in Cooperstown in 2019. With input and reflections from Halladay's teammates, coaches, competitors, and more, this is an essential biography for baseball fans everywhere"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Halladay, Roy, $d 1977-2017. 650 0 $a Baseball players $z United States $v Biography. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 2 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240716040333.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200702010238.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5145D74CBC2911EAAC3CDF0297128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
