Summary
In the spring of 2002, Bidini and family set off for Nettuno, Italy, the baseball capital of Italy since 1944, when the game was introduced by American GIs. Bidini wanted to spend time in a town where everyone is as… nuts about the game as he is. During his six months of following the fortunes of the Serie B Peones, Bidini, who had spent his youth vigorously ignoring his Italianness, also learned much about his own heritage. 2004.
