The best book I ever read on how to play any position like an all star. I will just say that after reading this book I could do just that. Remember, Pete Rose was an all star at five different positions!

It's been 42 years since I read this book, but I remember it helped my game in several ways. It would be a great help to any kid wanting to learn proper fundamentals for any position on the baseball field.
