Spring training may have been suspended, but America's love of baseball has not. Author and editor Emily Nemens joins Nancy Pearl to talk about short stories, writing, and...baseball! Nemens' debut novel, "The Cactus League," is about a fictional baseball player on a fictional team during the excitement of spring training. As stories often go, it's about baseball but it's also not about baseball. They also share a long list of sports-centered (and sports-adjacent) literary fiction to get you through the dry spell until the season returns.
