With a new introduction by celebrated baseball writer Roger Kahn and a new afterword by the author, updating John Henry’s first year of ownership after nearly six decades of the Yawkey dynasty, the legacy of the late Will McDonough, and the author’s return to his native Boston after a seventeen-year absence, Shut Out has reopened the discussion of baseball, race, and Boston with a new candor.
