Growing up in a tiny shack in the Dominican Republic, Felipe Alou never dreamed he would be the first man born and raised in his country to play and manage in Major League Baseballand also the first to play in the World Series.In this extraordinary autobiography, Alou tells of his real dream to become a doctor, and an improbable turn of events that led to the pro contract. Battling racism in the United States and political turmoil in his home country, Alou persevered, paving the way for his brothers and scores of other Dominicans, including his son Moiss.Alou played seventeen years in the Major Leagues, accumulating more than two thousand hits and two hundred home runs, and then managed for another fourteen yearsfour with the San Francisco Giants and ten with the Montreal Expos, where he became the winningest manager in franchise history. Alous pioneering journey is embedded in the history of baseball, the Dominican Republic, and a remarkable family.Purchase the audio edition.
