{"product_id":"9781998336159","title":"Field Work : On Baseball and Making a Living by Andrew Forbes","description":"Roger Angell meets Hanif Abdurraqib meets Bull Durham in this sharp new collection of baseball writing by Andrew ForbesBaseball is a sport, a pastime, an obsession, a dream-and for some, it's also a day job. A poetic survey of baseball's rich history, Field Work shines a light on the people who make the game happen, from major-league stars and little-league coaches to gamblers, ballpark operators, and minor leaguers forging lives outside the dugout.   With sharp-eyed observations and beautiful digressions, these essays portray the complex relationship between work and play-both on and off the field-to demonstrate how baseball is more than just a game.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56309448016245,"sku":"9781998336159","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781998336159.jpg?v=1762811840","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781998336159","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
