Aug 01, 2017TEENREVIEWCREW rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
I found that this book seemingly does the impossible, by making MLB’s rulebook interesting to sift through. The melding of odd rules and the times we’ve seen them applied on the field in the past creates a compelling visualization of some of baseball's wackier nuances. I’ve used the book to help me better understand an odd situation numerous times while watching a game on TV, as it covers just about everything that can occur on the diamond. I found this book to be surprisingly comedic at times, as it looks at everything, from illegally altering the ball using liquorice, to umpires ejecting mascots, and everything in between. The author does an excellent job of concisely explaining and simplifying the past events on the field where each rule was applied, making this book a pleasant and easy read. The thing I liked most about this book was that it reminded me what I love about the game of baseball. With every trip you make to the ballpark, you might witness something that's never been seen in the game's 100+ year history. I would highly recommend this book to any baseball fan trying to further their knowledge of the game. @OrangeAlligator of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library I think this movie definitely deserves a 5/5 rating because out of all the movies I have seen in my life, this was one of the best movies I have watched. The main actor in this movie is Scarlett Johanson, and she is a really famous actress, who is also known as black widow from marvel movies. This movie is about a girl named Lucy, who gets involved in with the mafia because of her boyfriend. They put some drugs in her body systems to see what will happen, and something that they would have never imagined happened. Lucy became something that is beyond humanities control. We are always told that we only 10% of our brain capacity, and have done so much with that percent for example; cars, phones, airplanes and much more, but what will happen when Lucy reaches the brain capacity of 100%. This movie is really interesting, and we get to see what kind of things will happen if we use “100%” of our brain. This movie definitely deserves 5/5 stars. @bluesky of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library
