Johnny Shaw, a fabulous left-handed high school pitcher
from Hell's Kitchen after winning the catholic high school
championship, is signed by his home town New York Yankees. Called to spring training the following year a foolish comment to Yankees owner Colonel Rupert returns him to the minors. Late in the following season he is called up by the Yankees and irreparably hurts his arm in a game against the Indians in Cleveland. After trying to make a come-back he is released by the team only to return to the mean streets of his old neighborhood at the height of the Great Depression. There he is stung in a poker game by none other than the notorious Dutch Schultz. Owning "the Dutchman" more money than he could ever repay he lures three current Yankee pitchers into another sting, and through these three "Dutch" tries to fix the 1932 championship just the way Arnold Rothstein and Abe Attel did fix the 1919 Black Sox Series.
"The voice is colorful, entertaining. The description of baseball is really fun. Well written, and ultimately moving."
Sharon Dennis Wyeth, author of BLACK EYE, published by Finishing Line Press
