A tender tale of coming-of-age meets baseball heroes.\u00a0Who wouldn’t want to be in\u00a0that kid’s cleats when\u00a0two of sports’ greatest legends move in next door?<\/p>\n

In the summer of 1961 a Little League player\u2019s joy of making the All-Star team evaporates when his father, too busy with a girlfriend, misses his triumphant opening game, and his mother spirals into a bed-ridden depression. Then, Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle move next door as they battle to break Babe Ruth’s home run record.<\/p>\n

Based on historical facts, The M&M Boys explores the parallel lives of an embittered Maris and a self-destructive Mantle who live together incognito in a remote Queens apartment. Maris, a misplaced Midwesterner, gets booed by the Yankee fans who prefer Mantle, and the press pursue him mercilessly. Mantle, on the other hand, basks in New York fans approval, but a series of injuries destroy his hope of winning the competition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

At 7,600 words, this work is a collection of humorous insights into important topics ranging from annoying pet people (\u201cI\u2019m Not Talking About You, Of Course\u201d), to analyzing your inner child (\u201cIrrational Fears\u201d), to living like the Amish in the aftermath of a hurricane (\u201cA Jolt of Electricity\u201d). Other essays examine just how much damage can be caused by a sneeze (\u201cIt All Started with a Loud Sneeze\u201d), why it is so complicated to buy a tube of toothpaste (\u201cAsk Me No Questions\u201d), how not to prepare dinner (“Martha, I Let You Down”), making new friends (“Friends in Low Places”), how a parent\u2019s obsessive hobbies can become an inescapable vortex (\u201cCrazy Hobbies\u201d), and why spending the night in a sleep clinic is like being abducted by probing aliens (\u201cNightmare at the Sleep Clinic\u201d).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
