When we were doing our book, Damn Near Perfect Game, and we asked Manfred and asked Rob Lowe and asked Mark Hoppus, said, tell me about your love of baseball.

And they were different, but there were some similarities, like the first time when you walk into a big league park.

Like, oh, the greens are never green and the whites are never whiter, that sort of thing.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB on the Go: The Book That Reminds Us Of The Importance Of Baseball

Why baseball isn't boring?

But I think that that's another good example is that like I could see a player sitting in his locker reading this book, digesting the book, getting value from the book.
