MEET A BASEBALL UMPIRE YOU'LL CHEER FOR Michael Briggs loves baseball. He cheers for the Philadelphia Phillies and dreams about playing in the major leagues, but he can't even earn a spot on his high school team. Disappointment turns to reward when Michael discovers another way to get onto the field--being an umpire. Follow Michael's journey from a geeky teenager bullied by jocks to a young man who overcomes incredible odds to pursue his passion. "The Umpire offers an unique perspective from behind the mask and is accessible enough to capture even nonfans with its honest and inspiring story of chasing one's dreams." Hunter Wendelstedt, MLB #21
