The Sweet Spot: A Treasury of Baseball Stories

Captures the voices of those who weave the tapestry of baseball in America: coaches, players, bat boys, clubhouse attendants, umpires, fans, photographers, writers, artists, scorekeepers and more. It also focuses on social issues like racism and gender bias, as well as examining the impact of art and literature on the game. War stories from former players and existing coaches add to a bold stew of inside stories that have never been told before.
