I loved the focus on trans joy and trans individuals in sports. I'm a fan of both baseball and a good romance so the two were perfect for me. My only issue with the book was a wording choice used - the use of "hold down the fort." Social justice communities are moving away from this term given its historical basis in colonialism. This move, however, is relatively new, so the author may not have known about it.
