I have heard more stories about this book and its effect on anyone who reads it than any other baseball book ever written.
Penned in 2009, ‘Heart Of The Game’ tells the story of Mike Coolbaugh and his sudden death on the baseball field after being hit in the head with a foul ball. Coolbaugh, a father of two with another child on the way, was just 35 years young when his life was taken from him.
What promises to be a heart-wrenching tale, it is made even more personal as I sit here as a 34-year old man and father of two. I may need to take my time with this one. It promises to be a great and hard to read story all at the same time.
