Mystery Coach (2009)
“He was chewing gum like crazy as he stood in the box, facing Harvey Keller.
Keller wound up, delivered, and heaved a pitch so wild that not even the catcher could reach it.
“Ball!” boomed the ump.
The Pipers’ catcher trotted to the backstop screen, retrieved the ball, and pegged it to Keller. Keller’s next pitch cut the inside corner for a strike.
His third pitch was about to groove the plate when Steve swung. Crack! The ball sailed out to deep left field and dropped over the fe...nce for a home run. The Blazers’ bench whooped and hollered as Steve ran with long, easy strides around the bases.
“Nice hit, Steve,” said Coach Edson softly.
Steve touched hands with those extended to him, but he never looked up. Boy! thought Chris. What a peacock!
Cleanup hitter Mick Antonelli tried to duplicate Steve’s clout but succeeded only in hitting the ball to the center fielder.MoreLess
