Best-selling author Mark Frost will be doing a book signing next Thursday, Oct. 8 at 7:30 p.m. at Village Books for his latest work “Game Six,” the story of Game Six of the 1975 World Series between the Reds and Red Sox. Frost lives in Beverly Hills and has previously written several notable sports books, including “The Greatest Game Ever Played,” a nonfiction account of the 1913 U.S. Open which became a national bestseller in 2002 and won the USGA`s Book of the Year Award, and “Grand Slam” about legendary golfer Bobby Jones. Game Six tells the story of arguably the greatest baseball game of all time, delving into the background of each player and the historical significance of the 1975 season, the last before the end of baseball’s Reserve Clause and the start of free agency. The game, which featured more than a half-dozen future Hall of Famers, is best remembered for Carlton Fisk anxiously waving his arms to direct his extra innings home run fair over the Green Monster.
