Streak

Aging, divorced, and alone, Dorsey McWhorter signs a free-agent contract with the Cleveland Indians, placing him on the launching pad for an apparent career-ending tailspin. As Dorsey confronts his private demons, a simple lesson comes to mind once taught him by Walter Mobley, a former Negro Leagues player and his mentor. Dorsey embraces the lesson, remembering how it worked in the past, and experiences an epiphany. Dorsey suddenly becomes the hottest hitter in baseball, putting together a consecutive games hitting streak that rivals Joe DiMaggios record of 56. In the process he rediscovers the joy of baseball and begins to find happiness off the field. The Streak isnt just a baseball novel, rather a study of one mans struggle to regain a life that didnt turn out as planned. Dorsey McWhorter is a memorable character readers will identify with and pull for because of his offbeat views and, foremost, his heart.Chastain, William is the author of 'Streak' with ISBN 9781591296928 and ISBN 1591296927.
