Pitcher Burleigh Grimes, who was so mean that he threw a beanball at the on-deck hitter... Outfielder Ping Bodie, who out-ate Percy the ostrich for the spaghetti-eating championship of the world... and Babe Ruth, who wore ladies' silk stockings for good luck. Among the new inductees are Ken Griffey Jr., who put a cow in manager Lou Piniella's office to pay off a steak dinner bet... Manny Ramirez, who abandoned left field to go to the bathroom during a game... and David "Big Papi" Ortiz, whose underwear was smeared with peanut butter as payback for the pranks he pulled on teammates.

Golf's Greatest Collapses recounts the agony-and sometimes humour-of the worst moments of a golfer's career, the moment when he can't do anything right. Golfers collapses are borne of the weight of the moment, the gaze of thousands of fans, the click of photographers' cameras, the underlying awareness that millions of people around the world are watching. Some golfers never recover from a collapse; others use it to learn, and when the situation recurs, they are wiser and better able to handle the pressure of the moment. Collapses can be good in the long run, or they can be forever devastating.
