As a dad coaching my sons’ 10U and 12U teams, this book was a gold mine of fantastic information!
In fact, I found this to book to be so helpful that I bought both a physical copy for my 12yo son, a digital Kindle copy for myself, AND the audiobook version to listen to in the car/on the way to games/practice/etc. Baseball iQ is super informative, very helpful for beginners as well as intermediate players, plus the Kindle version is basically a steal for the money ($2.99 at the time of this writing*)!!
Perhaps the best part of the book is the accessibility and the short chapters packed with anecdotes and situational advice. The breakdowns make sense and it helps to provide a wholistic view of baseball by illustrating how all the moving parts work together.

This book is the best nonfiction book I have ever read. I’m not really a fan of nonfiction, but this book has so many great tips that just from reading a book, I am already a better baseball player.
