An autobiographical book of baseball poems that translates life-- all 9 innings-- into the language of the game. Of interest to all fans.

Everything from childhood trauma, to early stardom, love, sex, creativity, meditation, midlife crisis, God and more is batted around, lofted high, and tenderly caught in the lingo and metaphor of playing ball. Even the ghosts of the Holocaust haunt the all-embracing field of play. At once memoir, homage, and all-out celebration of the game, this book explores baseball as a mother tongue of the heart that seems capable of wrapping itself around everything. Wanna play?
