Extra Innings
When the Game Feels Over, God Is Not Finished
Extra Innings is a powerful Christian testimony about failure, consequence, grace, and restoration through Jesus Christ.
Written by Don Hubbard—a former professional baseball player and executive pastor—this book tells the true story of athletic success, personal collapse, incarceration, and the slow, faithful work of God in rebuilding a life that once seemed beyond repair.
This is not a story of overnight transformation or easy grace. It is an honest account of pride, identity, loss, and the real consequences of sin—paired with the enduring truth that God does not abandon those who turn back to Him. Through prison, broken relationships, and deep regret, the author discovers that grace often works quietly and patiently, shaping the heart before restoring the future.
Extra Innings speaks directly to readers who feel disqualified by their past, uncertain about their future, or weary from carrying shame. It offers hope rooted not in hype, but in Scripture, humility, and lived experience.
This book is especially meaningful for:
Men navigating identity after success or failure
Individuals impacted by incarceration or life-altering mistakes
Readers seeking Christian encouragement and restoration
Churches, men’s groups, and prison ministry programs
Anyone longing for assurance that God still redeems broken stories
At its core, Extra Innings reminds us that the most important chapters of life often begin after we believe the story is over.
