Hear baseball enthusiast Zack Hample and journalist Malcolm MacPherson on this edition of Fresh Air.

Zack Hample's new book is entitled Watching Baseball Smarter: A Professional Fan's Guide for Beginners, Semi-Experts, and Deeply Serious Geeks. Hample is an obsessive baseball fan who has turned his devotion into a career, giving tours of stadiums, appearing on TV and radio, and writing books.

Then, Malcolm MacPherson, whose new novel, Hocus POTUS, is written from the point of view of an American journalist in Baghdad. The book is based on MacPherson's own career as a foreign correspondent for Time and Newsweek, during which he reported from Baghdad, covering the Coalition Provisional Authority. MacPherson has written 13 books. His most recent is Roberts Ridge. He also served in the Marine Corps prior to beginning his writing career. [Broadcast Date: August 8, 2007]
