As a manager and owner of a traveling baseball team, I believe Metal Spikes should be read by every single kid dreaming of playing baseball at a higher level… be it high school, college or professional. Not only does this book teach baseball fundamentals, it teaches life fundamentals. The mentors in Billy’s life are really mentors for all of us. I strongly recommend to all travel baseball managers to get this book for your players. It will help your kids become better ball players, and teach them how to dream big.
