Helpful Score: 2

I couldn't get all the way through this book. There was just WAY too much play-by-play of EVERY game. Of course I expect some game details but I guess I was expecting more history or behind the scenes type stories. I noticed King's writing was more of what I was looking for, less detail oreinted and more fun-loving. Some of the anecdotes of the two writers were funny and I learned a few interesting facts, but I just didn't want to know EVERY detail of EVERY game. Yes, yes, I know the book is about baseball, but I guess since I didn't already know everything there is to know about the 2004 Red Sox season a lot of things went over my head. If YOU are a true die-hard Red Sox fan, I'm sure you'll enjoy this book. I was just looking for more behind the scenes stuff.
