Omschrijving
A slugger struggles with an empty ballpark and a murdered teammate
The Providence Jewels, an American League expansion team, have been taking a beating all season. Worse, relief pitcher Rudy Furth has just suffered a beating of a more lethal kind--and been left to die in the clubhouse whirlpool among whispers of mob corruption and violently lovesick fans. When the police investigation stalls, veteran Providence center fielder Harvey Blissberg, who knew Furth as well as anyone, decides to play detective. While trying to keep his eye on the ball, and his head above water with the spunky, beautiful sports newscaster Mickey Slavin, Blissberg quietly stalks Furth's killer through major-league locker rooms and the dark streets of Rhode Island's capital city. Lots of ballplayers keep their batting averages above .300--but how many have chased a murderer at the same time? Originally published in 1984 and winner of the prestigious Edgar Award for Best First Novel, Strike Three You're Dead, was hailed by the Denver Post as "one of the best sports detective novels of all time."
