Zak Ford - Welcome

Welcome!

Zak Ford doesn't follow the current baseball writing trends focused on statistics and academic style research. He prefers stories that humanize players as opposed to dehumanize them.

His book, Called Up: Ballplayers Remember Becoming Major Leaguers, captured the feelings and emotions of becoming a major league baseball player.

He is currently working on a book about post-playing career transitions he has given the working title of Next Up.

Testimonial

"It’s rare that I can relate to all the stories I read in a book as I did with yours. The excitement surrounding the anticipation of a call-up is something a player never forgets. I relived the moment with every player. My thanks for that. Here’s wishing you continued success with the book!"

Jerry Reuss

Longest tenured player in Called Up
