MAKE ME COMMISSIONER I Know What's Wrong with Baseball and How to Fix It

by | Read by Jane Leavy

Contemporary Culture • 14 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

This audiobook pulls back the layers of baseball's problems and recommends solutions. It's narrated by author Leavy, a passionate fan and longtime baseball writer who is known for biographies of some of the game's greats. Listeners will hear about a sport that has become overly statistical and overanalyzing. Leavy's voice--literally and writing-wise--is perfect; she brings an honest, acerbic style to her work. Her tone offers a touch of gentleness toward those who respect the game and impatience toward those who do not. Her spot-on inflections ensure that her love of the game comes through. Listen to Leavy, and it's clear baseball is still a game worth loving. M.B. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2025]
