- Summary
- "Rarely does anyone use the term 'two-way' in regard to a baseball player. Yet the Los Angeles Angels' Shohei Ohtani, at the young age of twenty-three, has become the epitome of the term... tells the story of the player from rural Japan who became a two-way star not seen in America since Babe Ruth... Highlights ... his best games on the mound and at bat from each month of his rookie season and anecdotes of his life in America"--Amazon.com.
