'501' soon to be an international best-seller?

501Cup A dozen Frenchmen (French people?) can't be wrong. Found this on the Facebook page for the Bookshelf shortly after I returned from my trip to Paris and the visit to the local baseball federation:
INSOLITE | Ron Kaplan, célèbre pour son ouvrage "501 livres que les vrais fan de baseball doivent lire avant de mourir" et son blog Ron Kaplan's Baseball Bookshelf, a profité d'un voyage à Paris pour venir visiter les locaux de la Fédération Française de Baseball et Softball !
This is the translation, as provided by Bing:
UNUSUAL | Ron Kaplan, famous for his book "501 books that the true baseball fan should read before they die" and Ron Kaplan's Baseball Bookshelf blog, took a trip to Paris to visit the premises of the Fédération Française de Baseball and Softball!
Hmm, have to have a chat with those folks at Bing.

The post already has more than a dozen "likes" from local readers. I had been informed by the Federation that there were no French-language baseball books in France. Peut-etre this will change soon?
