He's living his life alone until he finds himself drawn into a friendship with the team's new star pitcher, Josh Schlagel.

But as Rob and Josh grow closer and start spending more time together away from the field, Rob realizes this his friend is hiding something.

When Josh's secrets are finally revealed and become life threatening, Rob and his family must step up to the plate.
Autorenporträt
Walter G. Meyer is the co- or ghost-writer of six nonfiction books including "The Respectful Leader", an Amazon-best-selling and Axiom Award-winning business fable. His critically-acclaimed, award-winning, and Amazon-bestselling novel "Rounding Third" was published just before the bullying crisis started making the news and he created a presentation "Accept and Respect: the keys to ending bullying," which he has taken to colleges, high schools, and corporations across the country. He has been on radio and television programs including NPR and he has spoken at colleges, libraries and community centers across the country. Mr. Meyer's articles have appeared in Kiplinger's Personal Finance, the Los Angeles Times, Orange County Register, Westways, Baja Explorer, Out, The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and dozens of other magazines and newspapers. He is the co-author and a widely-produced stage play GAM3RS which spawned Gam3rCon, a "Made of Awesome" gaming convention built around the play. Several of his screenplays have been optioned, but never quite made into movies--yet. To support his writing habit over the years he has worked a variety of jobs, some of which are chronicled in his plogs. He began writing his plogs during the Covid quarantine, publishing them one story at a time on Facebook to entertain himself and his friends and followers. Originally from Pittsburgh, Mr. Meyer has a degree from the School of Communications at Penn State and currently resides in San Diego.
