Soon it will be baseball on all televisions since March Madness did not include his alma mater this year, LOL. He went to the Reds Fest in a town near us a few weeks ago and got jazzed for the season. I do believe you and Tim could have a days long conversation about baseball and have a blast doing it!

He is looking forward to opening day (and if you don't tell him, so am I). I will make the time to check out the books. Anything baseball is his favorite thing to read.

I'm having a blast 're-living' their magical 2011 season through Tony La Russa's play-by-play in his book "One Last Strike". All the excitement of those final weeks in September 2011 and on through the World Series is coming back through this story. Baseball books are the next best thing to Baseball games!

What an exciting time of year. By this time of the season, I would have already been pitching in the cage for three months. Come March, I was ready to be uncaged and hit the field. I found one of the books on your list at my library. You can count on a review. The book you are reading sounds really good.Renaissance Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04042573630039646414noreply@blogger.com
