Book description
Jesse Katzs memoir is not about baseball, though baseball is central to the story. The Opposite Field is really about his relationships with the people closest to him in his life: his parents, his (ex) wife, his lovers, and the most important person in his world: his son Max. This is the story of Jesses years as a baseball coach and commissioner for the La Loma Sports Club, the youth sports association in the Los Angeles suburb of Monterey Park he and Max call home. Interwoven in the narrative of these years are the stories of his tumultuous marriage, his often-troubled relationship with his stepson, and his complicated search for love. Also prominent are memories of his youth in Portland, Oregon and his remarkable parents, his father Mel, an artist; and his mother Vera, who served three terms as Portlands mayor after distinguished service in the Oregon legislature.At the center of the narrative, and of Jesses heart, is Max, the only child of his marriage. Although the grander themes of baseball as a shared ritual passed from father to son are explored, this is not an urban field of dreams (though there is a season finale worthy of the film version of The Natural.) Its a difficult and messy place, populated by people with broken families struggling to maintain stability in the face of economic issues, substance abuse and a myriad of other problems. If things werent complicated enough, hostile neighbors, corrupt vendors and cultural barriers are also part of the mix. Through it all, Jesse struggles manfully to keep the baseball program afloat while constantly wondering if hes doing right by his son. He stepped up to save the baseball program when it was teetering on the brink of oblivion; yet it extracts a steep price in time and energy.Katz is a senior writer at Los Angeles Magazine and has shared two Pulitzer Prizes. Readers of The Opposite Field will understand why. He has a gift for painting compelling word portraits of the people and places that have shaped his life. This is a story thats at turns funny, moving, sad and heartwarming. A first-rate memoir from start to finish.
