Mitch Nathanson had access to Jim Bouton and his family while writing the newly released Bouton, The Life of a Baseball Original. He even had use of the 900+ pages of notes on napkins and plane tickets Bouton made during the 1969 season as he wrote Ball Four with Leonard Shecter.

Mitch, who also wrote God Almighty Hisself, the Life and Legacy of Dick Allen, among other books, will talk about Bouton at the virtual Zoom meeting of the Smoky Joe Wood Chapter of SABR on June 25 at 7 pm.
