    Since it is nearing baseball season again, I would recommend the book "Ball Four" for all of those who haven't read it. It was written by Jim Bouton detailing his 1969 season which included a stint with the Astros during their first serious pennant run (also their first season playing .500 baseball). It was the first popular "tell-all" sports book. It is very funny and highly entertaining. You younger posters should enjoy it, even if you don't like baseball.

    I glanced over Bob Costas' new book and it was pretty cool. I'm not a big baseball fan, but Costas' perspective was pretty interesting.
