what a delight !
Loving baseball usually means adopting its rhythms to your life . I become totally absorbed in the season while it’s drama plays out . As the summer turns to fall you are focused on pennant races but begin to feel the nagging thought that the season must be coming to an end . I have a hard and fast rule ; no baseball books from the last out of the World Series till pitchers and catchers report. I broke that rule to read Bush League Blues. I’m so glad I did.. such an intimate retelling of life in the bushes must of been hard to retell . Looking closely at an adventure to make it the Show probably wasn’t easy to tell. Mike Floyd does an exceptional job! I found that I got absorbed into his journey chapter by chapter, just as you get drawn into a great ball game. Each inning builds on its predecessor. The perfect book to start of process of getting ready for pitchers and catchers to report, Thanks Mike. Loved every page .
