During his decade in the majors as a legendary member of the 1980s Mets and 1990s Phillies, he was named to three All-Star teams and played in two of the most memorable World Series of the modern era. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen came a second act no novelist could plausibly conjure: After retiring, Dykstra became “baseball’s most improbable post-career success story” (The New Yorker). But when the real estate bubble burst in 2008, Lenny lost everything. Then the feds moved in: convicted of bankruptcy fraud (unjustly, he contends), Lenny served two and a half harrowing years in prison.\u003c\/p\u003eNow, for the first time, Dykstra tells all about his tumultuous career on and off the field. House of Nails asks no apologies and leaves nothing left unsaid.","brand":"William Morrow Large Print","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46831040364799,"sku":"9780062440273","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780062440273_s600x595.jpg?v=1774893233","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780062440273","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
