I hear Ball Four by James Bouton is supposed to be a real swell read.

Yes, Nick, Ball Four is on my To Read list as well, along with The Curious Case of Sidd Finch.

Ball Four is indeed an excellent book. It details Bouton's efforts to reinvent himself as a knuckleball pitcher as well as some insight into the lives of players, what happens during a game, and a season of baseball. Very entertaining and controversial at its time of release due to his truthful depictions of the things that go on.
