Have you ever dreamed you were at the ballpark and a line drive foul ball was heading toward you, but you didn't have your glove? Then you woke up.
In 1948 Merrimac Ohio, spring is here, and summer is on the way. This means baseball for the boys in town. With no organized team, the boys play pickup games at the local field. There are good players and bad players. Some boys get left out altogether.
For 12-year-old Robert Christy, being left out was bad. But being embarrassed by the school bully John Donovan in front of Mary Ann, a girl from his home room was the worst. He may not be the best baseball player. But he has other hidden talents. Armed with a deep voice, a knowledge of baseball, a talent for broadcasting, and some help from his Uncle Jack. Robert announces the baseball games while the other boys play.
Soon a group of boys with uniforms and a coach arrive at their field and challenge them to a game. Now, with Robert announcing the game and a local stranger named Smokey lending the team a hand, maybe they could win. But with storm clouds on the horizon, they may not get their chance.
When the boys decide to make the big game a charity event, it surprised them in more than one way.
If you like stories about baseball and camaraderie from a bygone era, then you will love "Across the Summer Skies". Relax and let Jack McKenna take you back in time.
