Buck, Son of legendary broadcaster Jack Buck, spins a
self-deprecating tale of growing up in the shadow of his famous father. From an
early age, Joe was allowed to tag along and watch his dad do the play-by-play
for the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team.
Brutally honest about his own and his father’s shortcomings,
Buck tells how it was growing up with the most famous father in St. Louis, who
never turned down a speaking engagement or a request for an autograph. As he
begins to blossom in his own broadcasting career, Joe faces stinging criticism
and accusations of favoritism from the baseball community.
