In her remarkable 2017 book, Stacey May Fowles shows us how we can use the lens of baseball to examine who we are. The book has been described as a passionate ode to baseball, its culture, and its community, which both celebrates and challenges the game – and reminds us why it really matters.

This week, we're un-fucking sports fandom with journalist and baseball lover Stacey May Fowles, purveyor of the excellent Baseball Life Advice newsletter and eponymous memoir. Fowles, a Blue Jays obsessive, recalls the story of her first formative experience with baseball fandom -- how it was marred by one dude's decision to be a huge creep, and how, 20 years later, things haven't changed much.
