December 3rd, 2024
“You spend a good piece of your life gripping a baseball and in the end it turns out that it was the other way around all the time.” - Jim Bouton

Went from immaculate prose about sadness, adrift-ness and failure (The Bell Jar), to an excruciatingly long chapter about major league ballplayers' favourite ways of looking up women's dresses back in the day. Ball Four needs the pitch clock.

RIP Jim Bouton. I read Ball Four at 11 years old in 1972. I don’t remember much, but I do remember something about how Yogi Berra would stand naked at the clubhouse buffet and scratch his genitals over the cold cuts. Godspeed #JimBouton
