This book is hilarious! I have not yet finished it, and I can already tell you I will buy every book Brad Bauer ever writes. Bauer is a cross between Dan Jenkins and Peter Gent. I reccommend this book to anyone who likes to laugh. This book is the funniest book I have read in at least five years. I cannot wait for Bauer's next book to come out.

This review is from: Hitting In the Clutch (Paperback)

It has a cover, pages, and typed words inside! it certainly qualifies as a book! Also this book is quite hillarious; Bauer(who i think infringes on the "24" copyright by using that name) makes you laugh with his quirky and lovable, yet outrageous characters. I aint gonna lie i actually had fun while reading this tale...which is more than I can say for most other books out there. Go out there give "Clutch" a read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ball Four for the new age!, July 27, 2006

This review is from: Hitting In the Clutch (Paperback)

Billed as a Baseball book for the Maxim crowd, Hitting in the Clutch is a rowdy, crude, hilarious look at what really goes on inside the clubhouse and on and off the field among professional baseball players.

This books is a HOOT! I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a fictional Ball Four, written during the 2004 Arizona Diamondbacks season. Clutch, the fictional author of the book, and his buddies are a lot like high-school boys, always cracking one-liners, talking crude and looking for monkey. It may be fiction but I thoroughly believe a lot of it is likely to be the way some ballplayers really are (or do I just want to believe it?). As crude and rude as Clutch is, I found myself actually caring about him by the end of the book. It's one of the funniest books I've read in a while. Run, don't walk, to your nearest bookstore and get a copy. You won't be sorry. Highly recommended!
