When life throws you a curve

the long version

Most kids growing up in America —male and female—spend at least some time playing baseball or softball. Even if they do not play in a formal league, they usually play in their yard with plastic bats and balls.As I was thinking about writing this book, I thought about my own years growing up playing Little League and then American Legion Baseball. One of the most challenging things was learning how to hit a curve ball when I was just a young teenager.
