From the Hill To The Hall Shelby Luse

Somewhere around June 1965. That year I was old enough to be joining Little League and I needed a glove. Unfortunately all I could afford to get was a cheap no-name glove with the autograph of some chump named Bo Belinsky. To say I was embarrassed is an understatement. Years later as I was doing research for my first book, I stumbled onto this guy Bo Belinsky. My only recollection of this guy was from a long lost memory of my childhood. I had to dig further. I discovered that 1962 was a big year for the Los Angeles Angels and for a 25 year old rookie pitcher from Trenton, New Jersey named Bo Belinsky. From Cooperstown to Los Vegas I was lead on a variety of fact finding trips as I interviewed fans as well as those who sweated and worked with Belinsky. Yes, From the Hill to the Hall shares with you the truth of what this man must have been like. But it goes a step passed what any columnist, late night television host or sports writer has ever put into print.
