The Dish: Stories spun from the only position player dumb enough to squat beneath strangers who swing big sticks inches from his head

This book is filled with personal and humorous stories about how the game of baseball has infiltrated our lives. More importantly, the view is from a player who never made it to the show, so candor and the filters associated with common sense are nonexistent. The hidden aspects of the game have been removed, so important information is conveyed, like exactly what it feels like when you take a 98-mile an hour fastball to the cup.
