Written by the original "Voice of the Astros" for over 25 years,  A Stitch in Time chronicles the extraordinary and exciting highlights of baseball from the early days of the game until today.  
The reader will find an easy to read day-by-day format beginning with January and continuing through December.  The notable events of each day of the year are recorded in Mr. Elston's familiar style.  Includes over 700 unique entries, dozens of rare photographs, and an extensive index to aid the reader.

Sports personalities are too often pictured as completely serious competitors, giving their all for the game. While sports naturally involves a very serious attitude, there is also a lighter side which fans are seldom aware. This book has been compiled from a collection of those brief and pointed anecdotes as well as some of the outstanding short sports stories. Fortunately I had the foresight to begin and maintain a voluminous collection of sports humor over the years from which I have extracted what I feel are the best and most worthy of remembering.
I hope you will find this intriguing collection of sports humor and wit one of the most enjoyable, amusing and refreshing books it will ever be your pleasure to read.
