Summary: Kirby Pucket: I Love This Game
Review: I Love This Game Kirby Pucket Kirby Pucket's hard work and persistence has allowed him to be a superstar in major league baseball. Kirby Pucket started playing baseball as a little boy in Chicago. There he played third base, not outfield. In Chicago he played in his neighborhood. His family didn't have much money so he would just throw and catch a ball against his apartment building as much as possible. But when there were enough kids to play a game he would play against them. Sometimes he played with his older brothers and their friends. He held his own playing with them. Kirby soon became good enough to play varsity baseball at his local school. After that, he went through a long and hard trip to the majors. This trip included practices on hot summer days and having to settle for sports facilities that didn't even have bathrooms! It was along that route that he met people that impacted his career a great deal. Among those people there was Kent Hrbek and Bob Symonds, the man that taught him all of the fundamentals of the game. It was people like them that made his career interesting and exciting. Overall, I think that this book was interesting and it is something that a person with a dream can relate to. The book was writen well and that made it easy to read.
