A League of His Own is more than a memoir-it's a heartfelt story of a father and son bound together by baseball, family, and the ever-changing rhythms of life in Bayonne, New Jersey.

Set against the backdrop of the 1960s, young Mickey comes of age while his father, Mike, turns a dream into reality by creating a Cinderella softball league that brought life to their blue-collar town. That vision leads to a legendary game, now preserved as part of Bayonne's history.

Through vivid stories of the Great Depression, the turbulent Sixties, and the timeless bond between father and son, thisbook captures not only the spirit of baseball, but the resilience of family, community, and dreams reimagined.

Mike ("Mickey") Bodayle is a semi-retired insurance company executive currently living on the outskirts of Nashville in Franklin, Tennessee. His favorite things in life are proudly displayed in the images on the four luggage tags found on his suitcase: the Yankees logo, a cassette mix tape, a slice of pizza, and the Starbucks logo. His typical day starts with a cup of dark roast and includes time spent listening to his record collection and watching or reading about his beloved baseball team, with most days also including a thin, crisp New York slice or two.
