    Summary


    “...Hello?”


    Whizzer’s voice was low and raspy, like he hadn’t been awake but not quite asleep either. Like he had been up late. With somebody, or alone. Up late, breathless. Still, he sounded alert. Marvin already felt stupid.


    “Hi. It’s, uh, it’s Marvin.” Do you remember? The fag from the game.


    “Oh.” Whizzer said, and Marvin could hear the smile already blooming on the other end of the line. “I figured. You know, not many people call me this time of the night unless they’re horny or dying.” Marvin didn’t answer right away. He felt the scotch in his hand and the heat crawling up his neck. His whole body reacted. “Which one are you?”

    Well, the situation’s this: it’s 1978 and Marvin takes Jason out to a baseball game. He’s incredibly bored until one Whizzer Brown happens to sit next to him. It’s a terrible place for this and even worse timing, but Marvin always has a hard time saying no to himself.

    Summary

    Marvin has a good life. A tight-knit family, a son with brains, a nice bright mother; but he can't help his mind getting away from him when he meets an uncomfortably dashing Whizzer Brown at his local bar.

    Summary

    Just another Saturday afternoon spent at the batting cages — because the Mets’ star baseball player is definitely going to give his not-son Jason pointers. But in the end, it’s Jason who teaches Whizzer a lesson in what makes a blended family.

    Whizzer chuckles. “Go take care of your hand. I need that thing later so make sure it’s not broken. Otherwise it’s gonna be a hellish six weeks of teaching you to use your left hand.”

    “EW GROSS!” Jason drops the bat and clamps his hands over his ears. “La-la-la-la I can’t hear you.”

    “He means to write with!” Marvin says, wiping away tears. Whizzer isn’t sure if they’re tears of pain, laughter, or a mixture of both.
