GOING INTO MY 9th INNING is the story of Louis H. Boudreau, a kid that grew up around ballparks with some of the greatest ballplayers of their era, including Bob Feller, Ted Williams, Ron Santo and Ernie Banks. Relates to his struggle being named "Lou Boudreau Jr.," after his famous father, baseball Hall-of-Famer Lou Boudreau and the voice of the Chicago Cubs for 30 years on WGN radio. From the most beloved ballparks to the torrid jungles of Vietnam, here is a "behind the plate" view of a kid trying to live up to the expectations of others until he realizes the most important opinion of oneself comes from within.
