BOOK SYNOPSIS

For most of their lives together Dale Jacobs and Heidi LM Jacobs couldn't imagine a spring without baseball. Their season tickets renewal package always seemed to arrive on the bleakest day of winter offering reassurance that sunnier time to around the corner. Baseball was woven into the Fabric of their lives connecting them not only to each other but also to their families and Histories. But by 2017 it was obvious something was amiss: the allure of another Sunday watching their Detroit Tigers had devolved to obligation. Not entirely sure what they were missing, they did have an idea on where it might be found: in their own backyard. Drawing a radius of 100 miles around their home in Windsor, Ontario, Dale and Heidi set a goal of seeing fifty games at all levels of competition over the following summer. From bleachers behind high schools to manicured the university turf, to the steep concrete stands of major league parks, 100 miles of Baseball tells the story of how two fans rediscovered their love of the game - and with it their relationships and the region they call home.
