Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The American League team was down 9–1 in the fifth inning, so they called on Jennie Finch, a retired baseball player, to pitch. She had been invited only as a member of the American League coaching staff until the American League stars went down 9–1 in the fifth inning.

#2 Finch was a regular segment on Fox’s This Week in Baseball in which she would travel to major league training camps and transform the best baseball hitters in the world into clumsy hacks. She struck out both hitters she faced in 2004 and 2005.

#3 The only way to hit a ball traveling at high speed is to be able to see into the future, and when a baseball player faces a softball pitcher, he is stripped of his crystal ball.

#4 The modern sports occlusion test was invented by Janet Starkes in 1975. It involves gathering thousands of photographs of women’s volleyball games and making slides of pictures where the volleyball is in the frame and others where the ball has just left the frame. The orientation and action of players’ bodies is nearly identical regardless of whether the ball is in the frame, since little changes in the instant when the ball leaves the picture.
