I caught Zito on the Dan Patrick show this week. After hearing him talk about his story and being an A’s fan I decided to go lay down the $25 on his book.

Only a few pages in, but I’m glad I made the purchase.

Recommend it.

Being left off the postseason roster in 2010 was a tough pill to swallow, but I'm glad he was able to get redemption in 2012. I can't wait to check this out.

Does he apologize to the SF Giants for stealing our money?




Juuust Kidding! I love Barry Z!

I’m not. They stole those from better teams

He was really struggling with being liked and carried a ton of guilt about the whole thing. He said he was actively hoping SF would lose. At that point of his life he was all about being the hero and that was his only identity.

I was disappointed that the book was black and orange and not yellow and green. Lol

I wish he had sold copies in both color combos.

The yellow and green one would be a better book, but the black and orange one would cost more and have a better ending.

We loved and wanted him to do well.

Does he talk about his current life as a country music singer?
