Former MLB commissioner Bart Giamatti once wrote that baseball “breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone.” This year the heartbreak for baseball fans has a different feel as it remains unclear if the season will be played even in an abbreviated manner. If you are missing the game that Walt Whitman described as glorious, check out these following titles from Hoopla.

Book Rec from Bobby
A Study in Charlotte by Brittany Cavallaro
Bobby says: “The descendants of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson end up at the same Connecticut private school, where nothing is what it seems and the bodies keep piling up. The game is on. For those who love the BBC Sherlock series and the Holmes novels.”
