St. Petersburg, FL, March 04, 2025 --(PR.com)-- Bob McDuff, a teacher by trade who also served as the general manager of a professional baseball team, Les Aigles de Trois-Rivières, has completed his new book, “Baseball Bob and the One-Armed Wonder”: a riveting tale inspired by true events that follows a young boy who begins playing baseball for his neighborhood team despite only having one arm.
“Baseball Bob is a thirteen-year-old boy who pitches for his neighborhood baseball team—the Redbirds,” writes McDuff. “He also manages the team when Coach Tommy snoozes in the dugout or forgets to come to the game. One day, a player is missing for an important game. Mr. Umpire tells Bob that if he doesn’t hand in his lineup card in five minutes, the Redbirds will lose the game. A young boy in the stands offers his services to Bob. But the boy has only one arm! How can he possibly play baseball?”
