Pete Reiser book now on audio
My biography of the Brooklyn Dodgers' great Pistol Pete Reiser is now an audio book! Voiceover artist Steve Zarro did a great job bringing the book to life. Click on the link below to hear an audio sample. I really like Steve's impression of old-time announcer Red Barber calling Reiser's inside-the-park grand slam, as heard in the 2010 Captain America movie.
