Astroball is the definitive account of the Houston Astros' unexpected rise to win the 2017 World Series, by the writer who famously predicted it three years earlier on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Somewhat overshadowed by the subsequent scandal surrounding the Astros, the book is nevertheless an insightful and gripping read, and one which chronicles one of the most remarkable reversals of fortune in baseball history.
We were thrilled to be joined by the author, Ben Reiter, who told us the story of how the book came together, and also by Bill Metzger, from the Crawfish Boxes - an Astros fan community website - for the roundtable discussion section of the show.
