Casual fans may say Scooter was playing over his head and had a great cast of teammates that would make any average player look better.

With a 40-year career on the air spanning the end of his playing days until his death in 2007, he bolstered his unique status in New York City history by surpassing his career on the diamond with an even more stellar career in the broadcast booth. In this, the first fully-researched and deeply revealing biography of an American legend, DeVito gives Rizzutto the proper biographical treatment reserved for a man who was one of the best players in the world, a World War II veteran, and one most famous announcers ever. No, nothing was accidental about Scooter's career. Rizzutto worked for it all, and he worked in ways some fans never realized. DeVito shows you precisely how and why in Scooter: The Biography of Phil Rizzutto."
