The essays in Fathers Playing Catch with Sons are a wonderful mixture of reminiscence and observation, of baseball and of fathers and sons, of how a game binds people together and bridges generations.In the pantheon of great sports literature, not a few poets have tried their hand at paying tribute to their love affair with the game—Walt Whitman, Marianne Moore, and William Carlos Williams among them.
