After watching his career as a professional baseball player go down
in flames, Cy Young Award-winner Barry Zito discovered a real
connection with God and a renewed passion for life. In 2007,
pitcher Barry Zito signed a seven-year, $126 million contract with
the San Francisco Giants. At that time, it was the largest contract
ever given to a pitcher. He was at the top of his game, in peak
physical condition, and had the kind of financial security most
people can only dream of. He was also miserable. And it began to
show. Zito's career declined over the next few years until he hit
rock bottom-watching from the bench as his team won the World
Series in 2010. In the months that followed, Zito came face-to-face
with the destructiveness of his own ego-his need to be viewed as
the best. He also came face-to-face with God and with the truth
that he was loved no matter what he achieved. In Curveball, Zito
shares his story with honesty and transparency. The ups and the
downs. The wins and losses. By sharing his experiences as a man who
had everything except happiness, Zito offers readers a path through
adversity and toward a life defined by true success.
