The Dixon Cornbelt League and Other Baseball Stories by W.P. Kinsella, Frank Muller
In W. P Kinsella's magical world of baseball - where reality comes spiced with mysticism - all-star legends and would-be heroes join forces in an eerie universe in which the national pastime is always in season. In the title story, a young baseball player goes looking for a break in the cornfields of small-town Iowa, but finds something very disquieting about his roster of teammates. In "Searching for January," Roberto Clemente paddles ashore on a raft, fifteen years after his fatal plane crash - which for him happened a mere few days ago - and ponders a return to the Pirates and to a world that has gone on without him. And what do you do when your teammate (and roommate!) turns out to he a werewolf? Nine stories amount to nine innings of sheer sporting pleasure in Kinsella's latest collection of basehall yarns.
