by Eliot Asinof ‧ RELEASE DATE: April 22, 1955
A novel of baseball manages some power hitting through the story of one of its casualties, Mike Kutner. Despite small size and glasses, Mike is picked up for a contract- but warms the bench until he learns that the way to hold his own is by any means-fair or foul. Setbacks are hard and even final- when at last Mike gets called for an important game too late. Hardbitten, but with momentum.
