Fiction
Rookie pitcher Roy Tucker is full of hope for his first
season with the Brooklyn Dodgers—and hope might be what the
team needs most Roy Tucker—a small-town kid from Tomkinsville,
Connecticut—has quit his job at the drugstore and packed up
for Dodgers training camp in Clearwater, Florida, hoping to
make the team as a rookie pitcher. He expects the field to
be competitive and realizes he might not pass muster, but
after just one practice, he discovers just how difficult a
goal he has set. But the Dodgers are an aging team, and owner Jack MacManus
is getting tired of the smart remarks from sports reporters
and the manager of the rival Giants, Bill Murphy. With a
little coaching and encouragement from Dave Leonard, the
oldest catcher in the big leagues, this kid from
Tomkinsville might be just what the team needs.
