Title: A Fantastic Read!
Review: There are so many wonderful moments in this book that I don't know where to begin: the naive and persistent phone calls that led to the job, the letter McGough's father wrote him on his first day of work (read it and see if you don't shed a tear), the part where McGough loses his meal money to fellow players playing blackjack on the team plane, and a relief pitcher gives him a $100 bill, the road trip to Fenway Park, where the players set him up on his first date... the list goes on, but even more poignant are the personal experiences McGough had with heroes Don Mattingly and Jim Abbott, who are portrayed as both noble and funny. Talk about meeting your heroes and having them exceed your expectations.This is a beautiful book written with great sensitivity and insight.
