Tucker's newest sports book, Atlanta Braves: An Interactive Guide to the World of Sports, was released in April 2012. Dale Murphy, one of Tucker's boyhood heroes, wrote the foreword to the book.
His first Kindle Single was also released in April 2012. The Kindle Single "You Look Like A Teacher" includes Tucker's award-winning essay titled The Memory of Hope.
Tucker is also the author of several books in the Black Mesa sports history / trivia series subtitled The Ultimate Test of True Fandom, including: Atlanta Braves IQ, New York Yankees IQ, Major League Baseball IQ, Cincinnati Reds IQ, and Tampa Bay Rays IQ (with MLB pitcher Andy Sonnanstine).
