The Young Pitcher by Zane Grey

Zane Gray tells the tale of a freshman at a college in Arizona who discovers his greatest talent -- as a baseball pitcher. Originally published in 1911, Zane Gray's western sports tale has thrilled readers for generations. From Goodreads.

I should really watch a game of baseball at some point, I know what it means to be a pitcher but infield or outfield and all the other terminology was pure nonsense to me. But luckily that was not all this book was about. It was about sportsmanship, friendship and team spirit. Also if you are trying your best and giving it all you have, winning isn't everything.
