Southpaw Blues

Tom Trinity believes baseball is his life. He's wrong. Even if he's thrown nothing but no hitters as a pitcher. Tammy, a runaway, is more important than any perfect fastball as are mystical caves where he learns how to pitch from a stranger he suspects might be his father. Then he learns about Dr. Winchester, his great grandfather, who commits more heinous crimes than Edgar Allen Poe could ever imagine.
The house Winchester built  has been as normal as called strike. Even with its fantastical tales of Native American legends and blue dolphins trapped in giant aquariums and a greenhouse that rivals any Amazon jungle. They force Tom out of baseball and into a mother's betrayal. Later he slides into the truth about who he is and where he has come from and tries to tame the love he has for Tammy as if she is a switch hitter he cannot strike out.
