Cy Young's Last Pitch

More than just a book about baseball, these nine poignant short stories share the genuine love and lure of the game, and the way it touches the lives of the people who play it across America. Drawing genre elements from science fiction, fantasy, paranormal, and period fiction, readers meet a diverse range of characters who all still share one thing in common: baseball. Meet astronauts, farmers, business tycoons, minor-leaguers, an aging peanut vendor, Civil War soldiers, and more, all with baseballs firmly held in hand. The collection celebrates romance, friendship, camaraderie, and the people devoted to preserving America's great pastime.
