When Everyone Loved The Game

This delightful story is built around a fictitious end of the season for the Chicago Cubs. An aging pitcher named Fast Ball Harvey has come back for one last time in hopes of helping a young team win the National League pennant and the World Series.

Harvey is joined in this effort by two long-time teammates, Hooks Harrison and Tonic Tisdale. Then the tale takes an unexpected turn, setting the stage for a one-game showdown for the pennant.

Says author Jim Shawn: "I have tried to capture poetically the feel of professional baseball before steroids and before player strikes "when everyone loved the game."
