<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Picking up where the "New York Times" bestseller "The Bullpen Gospels" leaves off, "Out of My League" continues Hayhurst's hilarious roller-coaster baseball odyssey through his rookie season.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>After six years of laying it on the line in the minors, pitcher Dirk Hayhurst hopes 2008 is the year he breaks into the big leagues. But every time Dirk looks up, the bases are loaded with new challenges, on and off the field: a wedding balancing on a blind hope, a family in chaos, and paychecks that beg Dirk to answer, "How long can I afford to keep doing this?" Then it finally happens-Dirk gets called up to the Majors, to play for the San Diego Padres. A dream comes true when he takes the mound against the San Francisco Giants, kicking off forty insane days and nights in the Bigs-with a big paycheck, bigger-than-life personalities, and the biggest pressure he's ever felt. Like the classic games of baseball's illustrious history, Out of My League entertains from the first pitch to the last out, capturing the gritty realities of playing on the big stage, the comedy and camaraderie in the dugouts and locker rooms, and the hard-fought, personal journeys that drive our love of America's favorite pastime.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dirk Hayhurst</b> is the <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>The Bullpen Gospels, Out of My League, Bigger Than the Game, </i>and the e-book<i> Wild Pitches</i>.
