About this product

Product Information

"Straw is the story of a guy who had two strikes against him in the middle innings of life and hit one out of the park." --Reggie Jackson "A riveting and memorable account of one man's pursuit of a meaningful life." --David Cone Former New York Met and Yankee slugger Darryl Strawberry has subtitled his autobiography Straw, "Finding My Way"--and his path was never easy. A National League Rookie of the Year, eight-time MLB All Star, and four-time World Series Champion, Strawberry's baseball achievements were often overshadowed by his struggles off the field. In Straw, he tells it all: his boyhood in Crenshaw, Los Angeles; his rise to baseball superstardom; the high life and low life; his brushes with the law; his triumphant battle over cancer; his religious awakening, and his marriage to the love of his life.

    good read, but we have heard this same story time and time again

    this was the typical story of an athlete who strayed off the wrong path and then came back on the right path before it was too late for him. many arrests and drug charges and he never died, and now he is here to tell his story to keep others from following the path he chose!
