Peter Esterhazy (commissioner of baseball) had flown out to L.A. to attend the final three games of the season between the Vikings fitional) and the As (real). He wanted to be on hand for the post-game festivities and the presentation of the trophy for the divisdional championship. |

If this was stated a little differently, it would appeal to an even wider audience, imho. |

Well, I think that the sex and violence is appropriately subtle. Quite understated and not apparent when first read. But L.A. does not fit. Come on, nothing of note happens there anymore. Id recommend Concord, N.H. |

As for the sex, jeez, you actuaslly saw SEX in that quote? Hat's off to you...there's plenty of (mild) sex in the book, but I thought that quote was about a double play... |

Just a bit of violence: someone in the stands shoots Randy (the shortstop) in the butt (the butt part was an accident; he wanted to kill him) after he makes a home run to win a world series game. Turns out to be a wacko, and not a plot or anything. But anyway, the team has to go to Cincinatti without him, and they lose the Series, either because or unrealted to that. |

The original Dreyfus Affair was told in one of my favorite movies, "The Life of Emile Zola" with Paul Muni. It's a classic. |
