Book Synopsis: Baseball and all youth sports teach kids valuable "life lessons," but not when their role model parents and coaches behave like lunatics! With a biting, sarcastic sense of humor, this parent, coach, and umpire analyzes why seemingly intelligent adults lose their minds over kids playing baseball. Fireworks erupt when those wanting what's best for the kids clash with others who think winning is all that matters.
