Great for educating kids!

I was intrigued to continue listening to this book to learn the game and history of baseball.The author explained the game of baseball very well. Extremely simple to understand the way it is explained. I found it very interesting to learn what “you’re killin me smalls” means because I’ve been saying that phrase for the majority of my life and have never known what it meant! Great book for those interested in the game of baseball.

Highly recommended.

I downloaded this audiobook because I was looking for something fun to share with my kids as they love sport. I was not disappointed because this book tells you everything you need to know about baseball. The author has included so many fun and interesting facts to do with teams, how to play, positions, managers, players over the decades abc much much more. I especially liked the chapters on best baseball movies and we loved doing the fun short quiz at the end.

Baseball Fantastic!

This beautiful sport is well explained in this very nicely narrated audiobook. I would say adults would also like to hear this and if you are a baseball fan (young or old), this is good fun and a good education. Fun facts will keep the kids amused and the trivia will keep any diehard baseball fan interested. Great book.
