"...a lovely memoir."
- FRANK DEFORD, Sports Illustrated

A Slow-Pitch Summer is a candid, endearing, and often humorous memoir written by a physician returning to his first softball season in forty years. Dr. Speroff takes the reader along his journey as he rekindles his life-long love affair with the game. From choosing the perfect glove, to finding the sweet spot on the on bat, the camaraderie between the teammates on the 60-plus "lime popsicles," this story celebrates a personal triumph over the aging process. A Slow-Pitch Summer is a great gift item for anyone who loves the sport of softball, and is a great guide for those looking forward to living well--or acting like a kid again--in retirement.


"...a must-read for anyone who is playing senior softball. It captures the enjoyment and fun of playing on a team and what you discover about yourself as a member of that team."
- BILL PLUMMER III, Manager, ASA National Softball Hall of Fame
