Breaking into the majors with Pete Rose, the Hit King -- Taking swings with Sweet Lou -- Playing with two icons: Donnie and Derek -- I was never as zen as Bernie Williams -- I like homers, but I like DJ LeMahieu more -- Facing Randy Jackson-- wish me luck -- Ted talks: talking hitting with Ted Williams -- Truths from Torre -- A final Bronx tale - Extra innings.

O'Neill has always been a tough out at the plate: he started to swing a bat as a two-year-old, and kept swinging professionally until he was thirty-eight. Here he provides insights into the beauty and frustration of playing baseball-- accompanied by clubhouse stories from some of the biggest names in Major League Baseball. The result is a fun and fiery memoir of a five-time World Champion. -- adapted from jacket
