Tony never knows what to expect at home. One day his mom is fine, the next, she's sick in bed. Anger toward his absentee father and worry about his little sister compound his anxiety. It takes an accident and a trip to the hospital to shock all involved into coming to grips with his mother's alcoholism. Average fare that touches on many of the confusing signals children get from alcoholic parents. -- Copyright © 1993 The Horn Book, Inc. All rights reserved.
Since his father left, Tony's been struggling to hold his family together. The only place he feels in control is on the baseball diamond. "A smooth integration of baseball and daily life play-by-play, offers a riveting read."--Booklist.
