Love of actual Baseball

Would you consider the audio edition of Tales from the Dugout to be better than the print version?

No. The narrator was kinda boring. I expected a little more emotion given such a fun subject matter.

What other book might you compare Tales from the Dugout to and why?

Ken Burns' Baseball all ten innings.

What three words best describe Patrick Cullen’s voice?

Not emotional enough

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Don't know
