About the Book

I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in sports, especially with baseball, Dustin Pedroia, or the Boston Red Sox. In the book, Dustin gives huge amounts of insight to his life and you learn tons of new and interesting facts. The reader gets a detailed walkthrough of his life from his days as a kid all the way to his time as a professional.

This book has multiple settings and the time period begins in about 1983 and continues to the present. The tiltle shows that he feels as if he was born to play the game, which after reading the book seems very true. He had been playing baseball with a passion his whole life. I think the response of culture to this book was positive. Dustin is seen as a hard nose guy who is always intense and competing, but this book really shows a different side of him.
