Synopsis
Razzle Nugent, the longtime great Dodger pitcher, has many fans—but his own son is not one of them. Joe Nugent hasn't seen his father in years and thinks he wouldn't mind not seeing him forever. Joe is a rookie second baseman in a Class-D league with a Class-A chip on his shoulder. If anyone compares Joe to his father or calls him "Young Razzle," you know there's going to be a fight.
That's the way things are until Joe's smash success. In one season, he is promoted from savannah to Kansas City to the New York Yankees. And as Joe is soaring up to the majors, his washed-up father is riding his fading star down to the minors. It is inevitable that their paths will cross, and cross they do on a Kansas City baseball diamond. The explosion of their first meeting sends Joe reeling and sparks Old Rap Nugent's astonishing, drama-packed comeback to big-league baseball...and maybe to his only son.
Here, John R. Tunis takes us skillfully into two worlds: the thrilling world of professional baseball and the world found only in the deepest hearts of a father and son about to discover each other for the first time.
