The synopsis: The baseball gods blessed Frank Ryder but his conscience torments him.
“There is so much paradox to the idea that the exact same thing that is bringing Frank Ryder so much fame and attention — and upending the sport he loves — is the very same thing that took a human life,” Stevens said in a phone interview from his home in Mancos.
Colorado author Mark Stevens presents his new baseball book “The Fireballer” to readers at Tattered Cover book store in Denver on Feb. 2. But make no mistake, Stevens has written a lively baseball novel, and he takes great care with details that make the book feel genuine. Also in the novel are Frank Gallo, the conflicted team owner, a new-age female general manager, and a leathery, old-school manager who treats players like chess pieces. Ryder bonds with his teammates and skirmishes with unscrupulous members of the media who want to peek inside his soul.
