Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Plated City "One strike!" A murmur of discontent ran along the open stands on either side of the Bartonvale ball grounds, and even in the grand stand, where the umpire´s decisions were usually taken philosophically, there was a decided shrugging of shoulders. In one of the directors´ chairs, exactly behind the catcher, sat a young woman who was determined to know all about the game. "Why, he didn´t strike at all!" she exclaimed. "He didn´t move. I was looking at him all the time." "I don´t know anything about it, my dear," said the elderly gentleman at her right, taking off his broad-brimmed felt hat and mopping his forehead patiently. "You´ll have to ask Mr. Kennedy." Craig Kennedy smiled, without taking his eyes from the pitcher. "You are quite right, Sally. He didn´t move; the strike was called on him. It was wide of the plate, though. Look out now; here it comes again; watch it; watch it!" About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
