When thinking about something interesting I could do to fulfill my senior year project, I came up with the idea of writing a book of interviews with both minor league and major league baseball players. In today's society, where sports dominate the media, I wanted to give young players and fans a chance to see the world of baseball through the eyes of the players themselves. So I got to work, reaching out to the public relations departments of every organization in Major League Baseball and their affiliated minor league clubs. Many organizations said no, but I was motivated to write the book, so I continued emailing and calling front offices. After finally securing approvals from a few teams, I set up a series of interviews. I had never done anything even remotely similar to this before, but I wrote questions, bought a recording device, and started to conduct the interviews. I ended up interviewing many players and chose ten to include in this project. The process of putting together this book has been enlightening, inspiring, and has allowed me to explore my greatest passion."
