Book excerpt: Provides a blueprint for becoming a champion, both on and off the field When Dayton Moore arrived in Kansas City in 2006, the Royals hardly resembled a contender. The general manager inherited a major league club that had just one winning season in the previous decade. Moore, a Kansas native who grew up as a Royals fan, implemented a plan to return the franchise to its glory years. Though not without a few bumps in the road, that plan came to fruition in 2014 and 2015, as the Royals reached the World Series both years and were corned 2015 World Series champions. In More Than a Season, Moore shares how his faith and leadership principles guided his rebooting of the Royals. The general manager describes how he built one of baseball's best farm systems and international scouting departments of out nothing. He shares insight on how he persevered through six consecutive losing seasons and the critical response to controversial trades of Zack Greinke and Wil Myers—transactions that ultimately yielded the foundation of a champion. Full of never-before-told stories from inside the Royals organization More Than a Season features an introduction by William F. High, CEO of the National Christian Foundation Heartland. This updated edition features an all-new prologue and an additional chapter celebrating the 2015 World Series championship season.

But nineteen-year-old Jason Brody is completely, utterly, and totally off-limits. Besides, her dad would kill them both several times over.

Annie has enough on her plate without taking their friendship to the next level. The last thing she should be doing is falling in love. But baseball isn't just a game. It's life. And sometimes, it can break your heart...

Book excerpt: Atlanta Braves minor league pitcher, Brett Davies, has much to contemplate at the young age of 25. Coming back from a torn rotator cuff that slows his dream of major league stardom, he has completed his first post-injury season with their farm team in Greenville, South Carolina. But his success as their top relief pitcher does not lead to a call up to Atlanta at the end of the Greenville season. Did the Braves executives think his repaired shoulder wasn’t good enough for major league competition? He needed answers and would go to Atlanta to meet with their general manager to find them. But Brett has more on his mind than baseball. Raised by a single mom, he had never been allowed to meet his father. Brett never knew why. His mother just told him, “It’s not possible.” And at age 25, Brett wonders if he will ever find the right girl to spend the rest of his life with. No current girlfriend, with none on the horizon, had both Brett (and his mother) concerned. But things were about to rapidly change. The following season Brett finds himself assigned to the Braves minor league team in Rome, Georgia as a player coach. A series of random events brings new people and new challenges into Brett’s life. Would they also lead him to the answers he needed to find his way home?
