Making Contact

Nine-year-old William Dobbs has only one thing to remember his biological father by, a picture of him wearing a New York Yankees hat. When Will's adoptive parents inform him that his father did not die in a car accident eight years earlier as he had always believed, he resolves to make contact the only possible way he can think of, by becoming a New York Yankee. He succeeds, but in his rookie season, a wayward fastball tragically diverts his quest, and nearly ends his life. Will awakens from a coma eight weeks later, better than before, with inexplicable, almost superhuman abilities that eventually throw his search, entire life, and the game of baseball itself into turmoil. ';Making Contact' is the story of a sons search for his father, the sanctity of Americas pastime, Baseball, and one man's struggle to undo the damage done to him, and that which he has done to others.
