I do, I saw every episode in its brief prime time scheduling. No, it wasn't very good, but it was Jim Bouton, and at least he received some extra exposure; hopefully, it got others interested in buying the book. Ben Davidson was also in the cast.

Ejstel, as for your son, my grandfather gave me a copy when I was 12 years old. He had found it in a thrift store and he saw a baseball on the slipcover and gave it to me; he had no idea what it contained (nor did I until I read it for the first time.) Though I didn't get all of its "nuances" at the time it was enough to warp my mind. At what age would you recommend your son to read "Ball Four?"

Enjoy!
