A sudden turn on the mound

Tommy Browning is a 21-year-old pitcher with the Single A Macon Peaches, uncertain whether his baseball career can reach the major leagues. When he abruptly becomes unhittable, the change gives the story its central question: what is “The Gift,” and can he hold on to it? The premise connects the pressures of pursuing a professional sports dream with an unexplained shift in Tommy’s fortunes, placing baseball at the heart of a young adult story about ambition and uncertainty.

Book overview

A struggling minor league baseball pitcher is suddenly unhittable. But why? Tommy Browning is hopelessly trapped in his baseball dream. Wallowing in Single A with the Macon Peaches, he doesn't know if he'll ever make The Show--the major leagues--or if his dream of a professional career is even worth pursuing. But fate steps in and the 21-year-old pitcher is launched on a roller-coaster ride that he can't control, much less understand. He has "The Gift," but can he keep it?
