Media Reviews
"I watched the first episode of Fitzgerald's Peanuts series and liked it. There are the typical tales about an independent team: the 11-hour bus rides, sleeping on mattresses three to a dorm room and surviving on fast food." - Jack Curry, The NY Times
"Enjoy Playing for Peanuts for what it is: a humble, unassuming story about how baseball, even at its lowest levels, is a lot like life - maybe most of all like life at those lowest levels." - Ted Cox, Chicago Daily Herald
