What leads a man in his mid to late thirties to take up the sport
of baseball after a fifteen year hiatus? Especially when stressful
and potentially humiliating tryouts are involved? The Lutherville,
Maryland, Athletics are a ball team composed of plumbers,
demolition guys, investment bankers, security guards and salesmen
who play for the love of the game. How their passion for the game
of baseball affects their lives is the subject of this book.
Focusing on Smith's love affair with sport of baseball, this volume
provides a firsthand account of a season in the Baltimore County,
Over-30 league from tryouts to the final game. Beginning with
childhood experiences in the Kentwood League in Raleigh, North
Carolina, it follows Smith through his high school and college
years as his interest in the game of baseball waned. The true focus
of the book is the re-emergence of the sport as an important part
of Smith's life and the glory he and his teammates find in simply
being ballplayers.
