Ballplayers Are Human, Too is a book written by Ralph Houk that explores the personal lives and experiences of professional baseball players. Houk, a former Major League Baseball player and manager, draws on his own experiences as well as interviews with players to provide insights into the challenges and pressures they face both on and off the field. The book covers a range of topics, including the impact of fame and fortune on players' personal lives, the challenges of dealing with injuries and setbacks, and the importance of family and community support. Houk also discusses the role of race and ethnicity in baseball, and the ways in which players have used their platform to advocate for social justice issues. Overall, Ballplayers Are Human, Too offers a unique perspective on the lives of professional athletes and the human side of America's favorite pastime.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
