When his dad gave him his first glove, baseball became the center of Thad Mumau’s universe. In this collection of heartwarming and often humorous essays, Mumau describes the magic of America’s favorite pastime, including experiences such as playing ball in a cow pasture, getting that first uniform, attending a major league game for the first time, and making a baseball “comeback” at 30-plus years of age. The author also shares exclusive interviews with baseball greats such as Hank Aaron, Roberto Clemente, and Tom Seaver.
