The Universal Baseball Association by Robert Coover

The book centers on Henry Waugh, an accountant who creates his own fantasy baseball league. He designs an elaborate system of dice rolls to determine the outcomes of games and even the life events of the players, and grows increasingly obsessed with his creation. As the line between his real life and the world of the Universal Baseball Association blurs, Waugh experiences a series of tragedies and triumphs that mirror the unpredictability and drama of a real-life baseball season.
