Zim: A Baseball Life

Synopsis

For more than half a century, Don Zimmer has lived "a baseball life," crossing paths with some of the game's most memorable people and events. In Zim, he takes you everywhere he's been over his remarkable baseball journey, from his near-fatal beaning to his adventures with "Dem Bums" in the 1950s to the championship years in the Bronx as Joe Torre's bench coach. Told with refreshing humility and disarming honesty, Zim offers a panoramic history of both the sport and the man, told with a feel for the game that is uniquely Zimmer's.
