"Diamond Presence remind me that baseball is about more than balls and strikes, runs and hits, wins and losses. It is about making grownups smile and little kids stop crying. It is about recognizing a most powerful spirit that touches everyone at the ball park." Ozzie Guillen, Manager, Chicago White Sox
"There are two things that one can never say often enough: one, that the game exists only to be enjoyed; and two, that there is no limit to the number of ways that it can be enjoyed. Diamond Presence shines a light upon these two truths." Bill James, author of The Bill James Handbook Now available!
A touching collection of twelve true, short stories in which the authors relate how they came to feel the presence of God while enjoying the great American pastime of baseball as players, coaches, parents, children, or just plain fans.
