Annotation: On the eve of his thirtieth birthday, Steve Rushin decided to revisit the twin pursuits of his youth: epic car trips and an unhealthy obsession with sports. So he jumped in his fully alarmed Japanese SUV and drove to great American sports shrines for a year -- everywhere from Larry Bird's boyhood home in French Lick, Indiana, to the cornfield just outside of Dyersville, Iowa, where Field of Dreams was filmed. Road Swing is the story of that pilgrimage, and of the bowlers, basketballers, Little Leaguers, linebackers, pool players, and all the rest that he met along the way.
