It’s 2098 and the last season of baseball—forever. After the ravages of WWIII, the once all-American sport is now synonymous with terrorism and treason. Holograms run the bases for out-of-shape players and attendance averages fifteen spectators per game. The only ballpark left is the former Yankee Stadium.

America, nearly wiped out by radical Islam, has established a society based on love. Religion, social media, and the entertainment industry have been outlawed. All acts of patriotism are illegal, and the country is led by Grandma. Heading up the Family in her home base in the Bronx, she works tirelessly to build a lasting legacy for the future.

As baseball historian Puppy Nedick prepares for opening day, a chance encounter lands him face-to-face with former baseball greats. Determined not to go down without a fight, the players band together to revitalize the game for one last hurrah.

But not everyone wants peace. Will baseball become the catalyst for WWIV, or will it save America?




A Word from the Author

Author Gary Morgenstein pictureScience fiction and baseball are two of my great loves, along with politics and history. The beauty of writing speculative fiction is you build upon existing events and take them to that next terrifying, thought-proving level, like George Orwell’s 1984 or Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, along with a healthy dose of Philip K. Dick, one of my literary heroes. The greatness of science fiction is asking “What if?. What if America loses World War Three to Islam? History is not preordained. We always think the good guys win. You could go on and on with a number of possible scenarios where history would have changed on a fluke, the actions of one person. America is the greatest world power and for that, I am grateful and so should anyone who values freedom, but there is no guarantee it will stay that way. We don’t know what the future holds. That’s the job of a writer.
