Description
Roger Angell meets Hanif Abdurraqib meets Bull Durham in this sharp new collection of baseball writing by Andrew Forbes Baseball is a sport, a pastime, an obsession, a dream-and for some, it's also a day job. A poetic survey of baseball's rich history, Field Work shines a light on the people who make the game happen, from major-league stars and little-league coaches to gamblers, ballpark operators, and minor leaguers forging lives outside the dugout. With sharp-eyed observations and beautiful digressions, these essays portray the complex relationship between work and play-both on and off the field-to demonstrate how baseball is more than just a game.
