For former ballplayers, a career transition can be more complex than a mere job switch. Imagine excelling at something since you were a child that becomes your job and reaching great professional heights as a young adult--then, often within just a few years, realizing that everything you've worked for is over and likely not on your terms. What follows is not only the need to find a new profession but also to forge a new identity. Through 49 first-person stories of major and minor leaguers, this book gives readers a greater understanding of the challenges faced by players when they hang up their spikes.
