Trading Manny: How a Father and Son Learned to Love Baseball Again
Danny Says
Baseball season is winding down, and the boys of summer are battling for spots in the Fall Classic. This book hit me like a brick, as it tells the remarkable story of Jim Gullo and his son as they sadly watch as their baseball heroes are exposed as cheats – only to rediscover together why baseball is such a great part of American life. What can I say? I still cry at the end of Field of Dreams, even on the 83rd viewing.
