CALICO JOE by John Grisham

Do you love baseball?  I practically grew up on a baseball field as my brother played and our dad coached the team.

This is the story of two players, told by the son of one.  Paul's father Warren was a pitcher for the NY Mets and Paul lived and breathed baseball.  His dad however was absent most of the time and when home tended toward drinking and abuse if the family.  Paul rarely got to talk baseball with his dad or even have a game of catch.  Joe was a minor league player who was moved up to the Chicago Cubs, where he went about breaking lots of records.  Until the fateful day he came up to bat against Warren.
Both lives will be shattered.  What will happen?
