The Science of Hitting is a fantastic book filled with anecdotes, personal stories and great advice from one of the best hitters to ever play baseball. Even if you have zero intention of ever swinging a baseball bat you should read this because it is just damn good.
On the fiction side I just finished Castro's Curveball. Pretty entertaining. Kind of an alternative history story.
My secret Santa sent me the book 1954 which I will start today. I love Bill Madden so it should be a good read.
