Rick Wilber

Opis

During his long baseball career, Del Wilber caught for the Red Sox, Cardinals and Phillies; managed 6 minor league teams; scouted for 4 major league clubs; and served as third base coach for the Senators. Written by his son, Rick, this elegant biographical memoir recounts Del Wilbers life from the unique perspective of a son who grew up in major league dugouts, experienced the joys and hardships that go along with having a big-league dad, and served as his fathers primary caretaker as he became terminally ill. The result is a poignant look at the major leaguers life and the emotionally exasperating ordeal of caring for a dying parent.
