Baseball stories,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Selected Shorts: Baseball (Selected Shorts: A Celebration of the Short Story) (Audio CD)
I spend a lot of time in my car and enjoy baseball so I thought this would keep me entertained and awake during my drive. It started off slow with an explanation of how it came about, but once they got into the stories, I was laughing and remembering some of the best games and stories in baseball. It is really helping me get through the winter and my baseball withdrawals. It has a wide variety of baseball memorabilia - stories and poems and tidbits from spectacular games. If you are a true baseball fan, this is a must have.

Who knew sports writing could be so stirring or beautiful?,
By Douglas W. Clark (Albuquerque, New Mexico) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Selected Shorts: Baseball (Selected Shorts: A Celebration of the Short Story) (Audio CD)
A delightful collection of poetry, short stories & essays celebrating the quintessential American sport. I never realized how lyrical and epic sports writing could be. With these often beautifully written works, the writers show themselves fully & consciously engaged in the wonder of life & existence.
3.0 out of 5 stars
Just ok,

There were certainly some good stories but the live format was distracting. I am not sure I would recommend it as a good listen.
