A Pitch for Justice by Harold Kasselman6/25/2023 ![]() ![]() The impetus for the novel was the increasing violence in sports and specifically retaliation in baseball. ![]() This is my first novel and it combines my love of baseball and my passion for the criminal legal process. Should the pitch and its result be handled by the baseball commissioner, or is it a crime to be prosecuted in the courts? A Pitch for Justice examines the unwritten rules of baseball on the twenty-year-old rookie who threw the pitch, the game itself, and our legal system. /rebates/2f97815333234842fPitch-Justice-Legal-Thriller-Kasselman-15333234882fplp&. I know both sides of the criminal system and respect the roles both play. Brooks must confront a possible criminal conspiracy among team members, an uncompromising widow bent on avenging her husband's death, corruption in the grand jury, and a national debate over the inherent risks of baseball and the accountability of its players. What began as a feud between two teams ends in a shocking criminal case and ensuing trial when the pitcher is investigated for murder. ![]() Have you ever watched a baseball game where tempers escalated and you feared that retaliation by one side could result in an incident with serious injury? What would happen in today's society if a player were critically injured in such a circumstance? What if the unthinkable occured and the player died? Is it just a tragic part of the game? Or could it actually be murder? It is up to veteran prosecutor Jaime Brooks to investigate the matter and handle the prosecution. ![]()
