The perfect gift for baseball fans, now with a new epilogue by
author R.A. Dickey, winner of the 2012 Cy Young award. "An
astounding memoir-haunting and touching, courageous and
wise."-Jeremy Schaap, bestselling author, Emmy award-winning
journalist, ESPN In 1996, R.A. Dickey was the Texas Rangers'
much-heralded No. 1 draft choice. Then, a routine physical revealed
that his right elbow was missing its ulnar collateral ligament, and
his lifelong dream-along with his $810,000 signing bonus-was ripped
away. Yet, despite twice being consigned to baseball's scrap heap,
Dickey battled back. Sustained by his Christian faith, the love of
his wife and children, and a relentless quest for self-awareness,
Dickey is now the starting pitcher for the Toronoto Blue Jays (he
was previously a star pitcher for the New York Mets) and one of the
National League's premier players, as well as the winner of the
2012 Cy Young award. In Wherever I Wind Up, Dickey eloquently
shares his quintessentially American tale of overcoming
extraordinary odds to achieve a game, a career, and a life unlike
any other.
