520    While some Latin American superstars have overcome a 
       history of discrimination to strike gold in baseball's big
       leagues, there are thousands more who never make it to 
       'The Show'. Stealing Lives focuses on the plight of one 
       Venezuelan teenager and documents the abuses that take 
       place as baseball becomes a globalized business. The 
       authors reveal that in their efforts to secure cheap labor,
       Major League teams often violate basic human rights.
