Jim Bouton's Ball Four

[shaitan]

I know Stephen King likes baseball and is a rabid Red Sox fan. I was wondering if he ever read Jim Bouton's "Ball Four" and what he thinks of it. Does anyone know?

I'll extend my question to baseball movies. My personal favorites are "Bull Durham" and "Major League" for their quotability. Does anyone know if Stephen King has one that he's especially fond of?

Thanks

He mentions Bouton (but not his book) in Faithful.
