What a great season! What an October! Seriously. I remember panhandling for runs with my cap against the Yankees in Game 4 of the ALCS sitting on the couch, squished between Amber and Suzanne. Good times. Amazing times. And King and O'Nan captured the whole year because they just happened (!!!) to have decided to write this book the previous spring. Kismet? I think so. The chronicle's journal-entry style (interspersed with hilarious e-mail exchanges) really captured the day-to-day up-and-down emotion of that beautiful summer. I really enjoyed the well-expressed fans' perspective the two writers brought. It was the icing on an especially delicious baseball cake. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/282889?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
