A biography of Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, examining the genesis of his brilliance, his quest to win the World Series, and his place within the evolving baseball landscape.
What The Reviewers Say
The book is full of tension and cliff-hangers, and all that suspense makes for a welcome foil to McCullough’s subject.
McCullough certainly gives full attention to Kershaw’s development as a lockdown pitcher.
McCullough delivers a view of a fundamentally decent man with the usual foibles, one who brings kindness as well as ungodly pitches to the game.
A commanding biography.
