The Hit Men and the Kid Who Batted Ninth
The Hit Men and the Kid Who Batted Ninth was written by David Siroty and published in 2002. It chronicled the lives of the "Hit Men" of Seton Hall University's 1987 baseball team - Mo Vaughn, Marteese Robinson and Craig Biggio - as well as the club's #9 hitter and walk-on, John Valentin. Other people profiled in the book to a lesser degree include Kevin Morton, Dana Brown and Mike Sheppard.
