What effect do a father’s absence, alcoholism, and raw talent have on a baseball career? Perhaps no one can answer those questions better than Darryl Strawberry - the man who has excited and infuriated more baseball fans than perhaps any other player. He speaks out now, after the brutal media fishbowl of New York, about his Rookie of the Year season, when he shattered several Mets records, and his tempestuous relationship with baseball’s owners and managers, and his teammates, particularly with Mets manager Davey Johnson. With courage and candor, Strawberry reveals how he enjoys baseball and its promise more than anything, but has had to deal with the modern world and its expectations of him in the achievement of those promises. Darryl is a story as electrifying as the man himself, as exhilarating as a 500-foot home run.
