UPDATE - 10/4@5:56PM: Geddy was a recent guest on the Deep Left Field podcast with Mike Wilner, where he discusses his love of baseball, his new 72 Stories book, and the Toronto Blue Jays (thanks Jeffrey from Oshawa). You can listen to the episode below or wherever you get your podcasts:

Back in late 2023, Geddy Lee wrote a book of baseball stories titled 72 Stories from the Collection of Geddy Lee that he included as part of a package given to the winning bidders in a baseball auction that included much of Ged's extensive collection. He then announced via Instagram back in October of last year that he would be releasing the book for wide distribution sometime in 2025. A special, limited-edition version of the book was briefly made available around Christmas last year at the Rush Backstage Club. That edition is autographed, and comes encased in a red cloth-bound slipcase which includes an exclusive, custom-made Geddy Lee baseball, created specifically for this project. The standard version of the book officially released today (just in time for the MLB playoffs) and is now available to purchase. And if you missed out on the special edition last year, it's been made available again, and you can order one at this location. Geddy recently sat down with his co-writer Daniel Richler to discuss the book in this Instagram video:
