Despite the pressures of racism and a troubled personal life, Jimmy “The Toy Cannon” Wynn achieved remarkable success as a power hitter. In his fifteen seasons in the major leagues he batted in 291 home runs, three of which still rank as some of the longest on record. This biography includes twenty four photos of Wynn's life from childhood to his current career as a sports analyst for Fox Sports.

Despite the pressures of racism and a troubled personal life, Jimmy "The Toy Cannon" Wynn achieved remarkable success as a major league player. In a career that stretched from 1963 to 1977, he slugged 291 home runs, 223 of them in Houston ballparks (Colt Stadium, the Astrodome) notoriously unfriendly to power hitters. A strong-armed, speedy outfielder, Wynn was also adept at getting on base (seven times in the top 10 for on-base percentage) and then swiping a bag (225 career steals). This memoir recounts his triumphs and struggles in detail.
