Even the most die-hard baseball fans don’t know the true story of William “Blockade Billy” Blakely. He may have been the greatest player the game has ever seen, but today no one remembers his name. He was the first–and only–player to have his existence completely removed from the record books. Even his team is long forgotten, barely a footnote in the game’s history.

This short story is included in the “The Bazaar of Bad Dreams” which ive already reviewed not so long ago.

I need to give this short story some points. Because this one was the best short story written by Stephen King in my opinion. Even thou it was the best, it does out shine other short stories by Stephen King.

The plot as in the other short stories by Stephen King just don’t work for me, because in my opinion they are so shallow, boring and uninteresting that I cant fully get into them and actually enjoy them.

Again we are talking about a short story from Stephen King which didn’t work for me. I personally don’t like any short stories written by Stephen King.

The characters in this short story were very very boring, uninteresting, predictable, shallow and flat. Which is the absolute worse traits a character could have.

I Give This Book 2 / 5
