Synopsis:

"David Gilbertson, in his first book, has captured with an honest and sincere liking the phenomenon of the Prairie of Professional Baseball. It disbanded after only three seasons, but it was fun while it lasted. Gilbertson's work captures the humor and sadness that engulfs every minor league town. From the disgusting apartment of four single minor leaguers to the fruitless marketing ventures, Gilbertson tells it like it is."

—Mark Derewicz, Baseball America
