Mickey McDermott was voted "Most Likely to be Found Dead in a Hotel Room" by his high school classmates, and was soon afterward dubbed as the next Lefty Grove and a certain Hall of Famer by baseball's great minds. Some of his choices in life landed him a lot closer to the former destination than the latter, but if Cooperstown ever adds a wing devoted to baseball's most colorful characters, McDermott will be the first one inducted. His autobiography is a hilarious account of baseball's greatest era through the eyes of a teenage phenom-turned-journeyman reliever, and his stories about Williams, DiMaggio, Mantle, Sinatra, and countless others who enjoyed his company are absolutely priceless.McDermott, Mickey is the author of 'Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Coopertown' with ISBN 9781572435322 and ISBN 1572435321.
