Deadball Comes Alive!!

As I reveal at the end of this podcast, after stealing all your ideas and trashing Matt Harvey and conflating Dave Veras and Steve Kline, I have begun work on a book based on the strange-but-true tale of the 1884 Wilmington Quicksteps: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/mets36011

I'm on Page 2, so a little uncomfortable talking too much about it yet.

I've got like 4 books farther along than that ;-)

Congratulations! Sounds intriguing.

Hopefully you'll make it to the third page before too long!

Best known, of course, for being Julio Franco's rookie year.

I literally laughed out loud.
After all, Julio was my boyhood idol.

Page Two is the toughest. It'll be great.

Will there be any extraterrestrials?

Is this thing officially out!? I got a message that it was delivered to my kindle, but it's mysteriously not there yet. Look forward to reading it!

It's opening day, according to what I know. I got a box of books in the mail the other day
