Jim Bouton is one of my favorite pitchers of all time.
Isn’t he a partner in Big League Chew? Fell in love with him as a 13-year-old Seattle Pilots fan. An article in a Pilots program showed how he threw the knuckler; I had a mean knuckle whiffleball! Then loved Ball Four, the best baseball book ever. Can’t wait to read it in the week before Opening Day, my yearly tradition.
"There is no sports event like Opening Day of baseball, the sense of beating back the forces of darkness and the National Football League."
