"The game itself would be secondary to the thrill of traveling outside Texas for the first time - a week-long trip each way in two Model A Fords; of watching the great Satchel Paige pitch in a semi- pro tournament; and of having real uniforms for the first time. "I think we all grew about a foot taller," recalled Victor Deike, "the first time we put them on.""--BOOK JACKET.

Scott Badler on Brothering Why there isn't a Brother's Day? Because it would be a day dedicated to competition, bickering, and fighting. You'd go out to dinner and there'd be a rumble over the doggie bag. It could get ugly. Use your older brother as your guinea pig. "I've heard about this bad thing. I know you've tried it. I want a full report. Exactly when you started to feel sick. After the third or fourth? When did you heave your guts? The exact time. I need the report on my desk by Monday." Going anywhere with your older brother when he's a teenager isn't much fun. There's always uninvited guests wherever you go. You both could be using the urinal in the Greyhound Station and he's watching the doorway expecting some attractive woman to saunter in. Sibling Rivalry Forever When you're young, it's all about trying to get Mom and Dad's attention, competing for food and a dry diaper. Learning how to survive. But now that we're senior citizen brothers, what are we fighting for--the last drop of Maalox? The last Depends?
