Just Like Me:
When the Pros Played on the Sandlot
Volumes 1 & 2
Did you ever wonder what your childhood hero’s childhood was like? I did, and I decided to find out.
Just Like Me: When the Pros Played on the Sandlot Volumes 1 & 2 are the first books to tell the story of professional baseball players’ memories of playing youth baseball. My interviews with players such as, Niekro, Campaneris, Sutton, Zapp, Herzog, Bergmann will take the reader back to their youth with one thought, “Hey, that’s Just Like Me!”
In the pages of Just Like Me, former Major League, Negro Leagues and All American Girls Professional Baseball League players recount amazing stories of growing up playing baseball — events that ultimately shaped their professional baseball careers.
Whether you are young or old, a baseball player or softball player, these books are for everyone. Each reader will find a story that brings back a memory of their youth; there are many funny and happy stories, and some sad stories, but all-in-all, stories that are a big part of our childhood.
