I was nine years old and had two baseball books I was reading, Boys of Summer and Ball Four until my mom casually picked up Ball Four one day and read some of it. Needless to say I never saw those books again. I did read Ball Four but never got back to Roger Kahn's classic and it needs to be at the top of my reading list once again.
There's a new biography of Jim Bouton coming out in a couple months:
