From "New York Times" Bestseller Alessandra Torre....
Baseball Gods. There have been a handful of them, men whose bats and gloves are gold. Men who are blessed in unfair ways. My father is one of those men. I ve been right by his side through Dallas, then Detroit, and now, New York. We ve worn blue and white for seven years. For over a thousand games I ve been the lone girl on their buses, their jet, their dugout.
Then Chase Stern was traded in. A new god, one I d worshipped from afar since the day he was drafted. Already a legend, as much for his off-field behavior as his batting average.
I should have stayed away. I should have known better.
Gods crush the hearts of mortals like me."
