My family LOVES baseball, especially my son, and I think this would make a great gift to tie in our two loves. We are fans of the Los Aanglese Dodgers, and have a major distaste for the exorbitant salaries being paid, but both agree that there isn't anything finer than sitting in the stands at Dodgers Stadium (or any stadium for that matter) on a sunny summer day and enjoying the roar of the crowd, the crack of the bat, a hot and tasty hot dog with mustard and a nice cold beer! We have a semi=pro team here in town as well, which is great, too. Nothing big and fancy...heck, I even love a Little League game! Great combination, I say! Where can I get my hands on this book?

I never liked sports and I didn't even do any in high school. For me, I was more interested in going on a bike ride and later it became yoga. And then I met B. Husbando LOVES baseball. New York baseball. After I learned how it is played I developed an appreciation and interest. But... all this steroids nonsense has made us both less interested. And the huge salaries, too. I think I like baseball in an old fashioned-y kind of way. Imagine all those players from the old days who did it because it was their talent and not because they could secure a Pepsi contract. But their are the minor leagues. I think I'll give that a go! So in that spirit, the spirit of the minor leagues I think I'd like to pick up this book. Perhaps as a present for B?
