"A philosophical memoir that traces the life of a baseball player turned academic that explores the larger implications of sports"--

Draws from current sports issues, popular literature, and contemporary sports figures to shed light on the attraction and value of sports and examine the accompanying ethical issues

Tackles two big questions about sport: "What is it?" and "Why does it attract so many people?" This work argues that sports participation is best described as a form of human play, and the attraction for participants and viewers alike derives from both its aesthetic richness and narrative structure.
