Misunderstood People Volume 2: Lost Fathers, Broken Systems, and What Baseball Missed

Some legends I remembered. Others are misunderstood. In Misunderstood People Volume Two, Brandon Hyatt examines the lives of some of baseball's most debated and complicated figures, including Ty Cobb, Mickey Mantle, Babe Ruth, Satchel Paige, and Jose Canseco. Rather than focusing on statistics or controversy, this book explores the human side of these athletes. Their injuries, Pressures, struggles, Achievements, and stories are often ignored by history. Blending historical research with personal reflection, Hyatt challenges readers to reconsider how fame shapes public perception and how easily real people can become distorted over time. Written in an Accessible style for both baseball fans and general readers, Misunderstood People Volume II continues the series' Exploration of individuals whose stories deserve a closer look.
