The Dawg Days of Summer: Rickey Henderson's Year as a Surf Dawg Kindle Edition

4.1 out of 5 stars 7 ratings

Four years after joining the 3,000 hit club, future Hall-of Famer Rickey Henderson spent the summer of 2005 playing for the San Diego Surf Dawgs, a bare bones independent league team from the inaugural season of the Golden Baseball League. The start-up team played at a college stadium, was made up of players who had never made it into a Major League ballpark without a ticket and had a league minimum salary of $3,000.

Why would a baseball superstar go to Chico and Yuma to play a 13 week season through the hottest part of summer?

Go through the inaugural season of the Golden Baseball League and Henderson's final as a professional ballplayer in this story of a player in love with his craft and figuring out his place in a changing landscape.

Soon to be a ESPN 30-for-30 Podcast, The Dawg Days of Summer is a story about a superstar challenging the establishment to see him as a ball player, not statistics or accomplishments and working with teammates hungry for the same moment in The Bigs.
