Items related to Finding Buck McHenry
The coach says that Jason thinks more about baseball-card collecting than baseball playing. Now Jason will have to play on the Little League's not-yet-formed expansion team - the reject team - which doesn't even have a coach.
But Jason's got a plan to turn his luck around. He's found a sponsor and a couple of good key players. Now all he needs is a great coach. That's where school custodian Mack Henry comes in. Mr. Henry is perfect for the job: he knows a lot about baseball - and he knows exactly what a kid should do to improve his game. Jason's also noticed an interesting coincidence: back when black players were excluded from the majors, a guy named Buck McHenry was one of the greatest pitchers in the Negro Leagues. Mack Henry... Buck McHenry. Is it possible? Could Mr. Henry be the legendary baseball player?

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Daydreamer Jason, 11, has just been [dropped] from his Little League team. Seeking solace at the baseball-card shop, he makes a startling hypothesis: 'Buck McHenry, ' star pitcher [of the Negro Leagues], could be school custodian Mack Henry. Mr. Henry's identity, in doubt through much of the book, provides a mystery, a bittersweet revelation, and a satisfyingly dramatic denouement. The characterizations are pungent, the action (on and off the diamond) involving. A solid, rewarding story." --K. Finalist, 1992 Edgar Allan Poe Award, Juvenile Category (Mystery Writers of America)Children's Choices for 1992 (IRA/CBC) In a squeeze play, Jason is moved to his Little League's not-yet formed expansion team of rejected players. Jason has found a sponsor and a couple of good key players, and the school custodian, Mack Henry, has agreed to be their coach. Soon Jason wonders if the baseball-wise Mr. Henry could be the former great pitcher Buck McHenry. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
