Sometimes baseball is just a metaphor for life, and sometimes it works the other way around.

All Sarah Duke ever cared about was baseball, and she's finally earned her shot as a full-time sports writer. She loves the work, she loves being one of the few women to ever gain access to a man's world, but most of all, she loves the game. When Duke meets Molly Grettano and her two sons at the ballpark, she instantly connects with the young family, but Molly isn't sure Duke's ready for something more. Molly wants someone softer, more feminine, and more importantly, someone steady. She and her boys have been abandoned before, and she's vowed to never to put them in that position again. If she were ever to trust anyone, it would have to be someone fully dedicated to her and her children. Duke has a lot of heart, but neither woman is sure there's enough room left in it for anything other than baseball.

I'm English and don't know anything about baseball therefore I can't tell if the book is factually correct. However, the analogies between a sports team and life ring true and create an interesting and moving story.
There seems to be something wrong with the production values of this recording because found I had to adjust the speed of the audio on Audible, making it faster, otherwise the narrator was horrible to listen to.

Change the audio speed to make the narrative good
