Aus dem Klappentext

"Only three guys are older than I am; the rest range from sixty-three to seventy-one. Every single member of our team wants to win, enjoys winning. But I notice that winning takes second place to just playing. We all have the same problem: diminished strength and stamina. We can't run as fast as we used to. We can't throw hard and far. And we all have trouble bending over quickly. But playing is a statement, a challenge to aging. Each and every one of us is grateful to be here, to be able to play senior softball, even with its slower pace and special rules."
