Lords of the Realm might be a good one to start with. I assume most of the people who would be interested in such a thing have already read Glory of Their Times, but maybe make it an option anyway? Beyond that - I guess three suggestions to throw in: Veeck as in Wreck, if people want to read a fun autobiography by a seminal baseball figure. Up, Up and Away, if people want to read about the Expos and line Jonah Keri's pockets. Baseball in the Garden of Eden, because John Thorn is cool and good and the book reveals a hell of a lot about early baseball that most people had no clue about.

My assumption is that Comiskey gets lumped in there because it was the first MLB park built expressly for baseball by HOK Sports/Populous, who begin the retro park boom. It was also the first baseball-only park built since Kauffman.
