 Interesting, humorous and inspiring August 13, 2007
My 13 year old son not only declares this as the best devotional book he's read, but he also claims it to be the best book of sports stories he's read. I think he finds the "unexpected" among the stories. He took the book along to camp and shared with his peers the funny and inspiring quotes and bits of trivia, which prompted conversation in those awkward moments among "strangers". My husband is currently reading it and my brother-in-law has asked to be next in line, which means this book spans a generation of baseball lovers. My son tells me to keep my eye open for other publications by Dave Dravecky.
Excellent Reading January 8, 2006

If you are a christian and love baseball, I highly recommend this book. It's almost like sitting in your living room chatting with Dave Dravecky about baseball, life and christianity. Takes baseball players and issues past and present and puts a christian spin on it. I'm not a big reader, but I couldn't put this book down.
 Entertaining June 23, 2004

Well this really wasn't a "life-changin" kind of book but it was very entertaining. I am a big baseball fan and I absolutely loved Dave's baseball stories from a christian perspective. It's got some great stories about different players and a good perspective on being a christian in the major leagues. If you are a fan of sports then I definately recommend this one.
