Mickey Rawlings is a utility infielder for the 1914 NY Giants. His manager orders him to take a bit part in a silent movie being made in New York. He meets a young girl he admires, but also is confronted with a murder that he, in his somewhat naive manner, sets out to solve. The book is peopled with real baseball players and managers, and draws us into the hot Giants-Dodgers rivalry while at the same time acquainting us with the world of silent movies
