A Pitcher's Guide
A Pitcher’s Guide: The Essentials for Throwing Hard & Reaching the Next Level By: Arjun Alwis What must an amateur do to play baseball at a high level, especially if they not built like a prototype pitcher? A Pitcher’s Guide: The Essentials for Throwing Hard & Reaching the Next Level is a collection of advice from a former college pitcher who, unfortunately, started everything discussed in this book too late in his career. But now he’s proposing a path to how an undersized pitcher can make it to a high-level of play. The author shares his understanding of how someone who is not built like a prototypical pitcher can find success and play at a higher level. Included are personal anecdotes of what the author was feeling during his growth in the sport. Perhaps readers will learn that if they truly commit to their goal of pitching at a high level, no matter what their physical limitations are, they can accomplish their goal if they train properly.
The Graphical Pitcher
Graphical Pitcher is a new way to view baseball-pitching statistics. Instead of columns of numbers, the statistics are presented in the most natural and immediate way-visually! The book devotes a full third of a page to each pitcher, describing his career in six multi-faceted graphs and charts. These include a seasonal log and look at statistical rates, workload, career trends, and a revolutionary depiction of the data using a Monte Carlo simulation.
Silence is Goldfish
SILENCE IS GOLDFISH is a story that demands to be heard. 'I have a voice but it isn't mine. It used to say things so I'd fit in - to please my parents, to please my teachers. It used to tell the universe I was something I wasn't. It lied.' Fifteen-year-old Tess doesn't mean to become mute. At first, she's just too shocked to speak. And who wouldn't be? Discovering your whole life has been a lie because your dad isn't your real father is a pretty big deal. Tess sets out to find the truth of her identity, and uncovers a secret that could ruin multiple lives. But can she ask for help when she's forgotten how to use her voice? This is the third YA novel from the bestselling and prizewinning author of MY SISTER LIVES ON THE MANTELPIECE and KETCHUP CLOUDS.
Ketchup Clouds
Winner of the Waterstone's Children's Book Prize 2013, KETCHUP CLOUDS tells the story of one teenage girl with a very big secret. Fifteen-year-old Zoe has a secret - a dark and terrible secret that she can't confess to anyone she knows. But then one day she hears of a criminal, Stuart Harris, locked up on death row in Texas. Like Zoe, Stuart is no stranger to secrets. Or lies. Or murder. Full of both heartache and humour, Zoe tells her story in the only way she can - in letters to the man in prison in America. Armed with a pen, Zoe takes a deep breath, eats a jam sandwich, and begins her tale of love and betrayal.
The Pitcher's Kid
The Pitcher's Kid is Jack Olsen's memoir of the first 18 years of his life, years that formed his voice, his ear, and his passionate concern for the underdog. It is a story of a young boy's desperate yearning for a father during a time of extreme poverty and confusion. The book has been compared to Frank McCourt for its poignant depiction of deprivation, to Geoffrey Wolff for its sad depiction of a deceptive father, and to David Sedaris for its hilarious depiction of childhood. This is an unforgettable tale of coming of age during the hard years of America's Depression and of a family's struggle to not just survive, but to triumph.
