John Rocker was one of baseball's most dominant and controversial figures. As the hard-throwing closer for the Atlanta Braves, he electrified crowds with his fierce competitiveness and overpowering fastball, becoming a key player during the team's 1999 postseason run. But his career took a dramatic turn when an infamous Sports Illustrated interview made him a national lightning rod for controversy, leading to public backlash, an MLB suspension, and an early exit from the game. This book takes a deep dive into Rocker's rise to baseball stardom, his struggles with injuries and media scrutiny, and his post-baseball life, including his attempts at reputation management, reality television appearances, and outspoken political commentary. With reflections from former teammates, coaches, and critics, this is the definitive account of one of baseball's most polarizing figures.
