"One Shot at Forever" is a non-fiction book by Chris Ballard, published in 2012. The book tells the inspiring story of the Macon Ironmen, a high school baseball team from a small town in Illinois, who in the early 1970s defied the odds and made it all the way to the state championships. Led by their unconventional coach, Lynn Sweet, the Ironmen were a motley crew of misfits and underdogs who bonded together to achieve something great. Along the way, they captured the hearts of their community and inspired people far beyond their small town. Ballard's book is a moving tribute to the power of sports to bring people together and to the potential for greatness that exists in every person, no matter how unlikely the circumstances. "One Shot at Forever" is a must-read for anyone who loves sports and a great underdog story.
