Perfect I'm Not

<p><strong>Baseball's most beloved bad-ass offers a smart wildly entertaining jaw-droppingly honest look at the game he knows loves and lived.</strong></p> <p> On May 17th 1998 David Boomer Wells became the 14th man in Major League Baseball History to ever throw a perfect game. He stands as the only man to accomplish the feat half-drunk and severely hung-over after partying all night with the cast of Saturday Night Live. </p><p> Blowing away the industry standard of sanitized memoirs and stifling retrospectives his memoir throws baseball a hilariously nasty curve. There are no weepy/sleepy tales of substance abuse here no pompous lectures on playing hard or overcoming adversity and under no circumstances will readers find even one Vaseline-smeared gauze-softened tale of some long-lost fairy-tale boys of summer. </p><p> Written with unfiltered authenticity and truckloads of locker-room humor <em>Perfect I'm Not</em> sets loose the single most outspoken and entertaining player in the game at the time allowing him to take both casual baseball fans and hardcore fanatics where they've never been allowed before: deep inside the real world of life as a major leaguer.</p>
