5 out of 5 stars CHRIS COSTE --- 33 YEAR OLD ROOKIE   June 14, 2008
THIS IS A GREAT READ AND A TRULY HEARTWARMING STORY. A TRUE TESTAMENT TO PERSEVERENCE. AN EXCELLENT BOOK FOR ALL BASEBALL FANS, NOT JUST PHILLIES FANS. TOO BAD THERE AREN'T MORE PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES WITH THE ATTITUDE AND VALUES OF CHRIS COSTE.


5 out of 5 stars The 33 year old Rookie   May 30, 2008
I am typically not a reader, but finished this book in 4 days. couldn't put it down


5 out of 5 stars A book that's better than a book   May 27, 2008
As a life-long Phillies fan, and a Chris Coste fan since his arrival in Philadelphia, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Since I am blind, I "read" the audio CD, which had the additional advantage of having Chris talk to you, literally.

Chris' delivery on the audio CD gives the impression that you are sitting in your living room and he's sharing his experiences with you.

It makes for a great story and an enjoyable read.



4 out of 5 stars Good read for real fans   May 26, 2008
Real baseball fans will enjoy this easy read. They may also find themselves checking the box score to see how Chris Coste is doing.


5 out of 5 stars Felt like I was along for the ride.   May 20, 2008
In this book, Chris Coste takes you on a ride beginning with his childhood. I often felt as if I was there traveling through years of college and minor league baseball. Coste never gave up and finally received his reward of playing in the Majors at the age of thirty-three. I find myself checking the box scores every day to see if Chris Coste played and how he did if he did play. A great book about a man's love for baseball and his family. Highly recommended.
