Title: The legend of Mickey Tussler
Description: "Seventeen-year-old Mickey Tussler is recruited to play for a minor league affiliate of the Boston Braves in the 1940s. Arthur Murphy, a scout and coach for the minor league Milwaukee Brewers, swears that Mickey is a phenom, one who has the greatest arm Murph has ever seen, that anybody has ever seen and it might be true. But Mickey is also autistic before autism was given a name and his condition keeps him sealed off from a world he scarcely understands."--Dustjacket.
