Position to Win: A Look at Baseball and Life From the Best Seat in the House by Dave Scheiber, Dewayne Staats

informative inspiring reflective slow-paced

2.75

The amount of spelling and grammar errors in this book made me rate it lower than I like. I love the Tampa Bay Rays and Staats so i really enjoyed his outlook and perspective and learning about his life and more about baseball ⚾️

Her writing is low level and it feels like she thinks the reader needs every detail explained repeatedly

The first part of this book was aggravating and written in a repetitive and childish way. Second part was better and the end was kind of good. But not great. 
EIA: i hated the epilogue. Kind of a dumb twist, felt pointless after everything.

This was gripping and shocking and just overall so well done. I read this in about a day because of how quickly the author pulls you in with their writing. This type of horror was not what I was expecting
