Marteese Robinson's journey in and out of baseball is a story that had to be told...an inspirational must read., The Hit Men and the Kid Who Batted Ninth is a fine evocation of four big leaguers and their common beginnings. It's a tale of friendship and determination that baseball fans of all stripes are sure to enjoy., This is not just a book about baseball, but a story about dreams and the diverse path each of us takes, if we choose to reach for those dreams.
