Jess Singer, pitching prodigy and son of the infamous Jewish Joe Singer--who starred on the mound for the same MLB team twenty-five years earlier--is blessed with a plus-plus curveball, possesses immense athletic abilities, and is on the fast-track to stardom. But he´s harboring perhaps the most potent secret a professional athlete can possess: his sexual preference.

In this briskly paced, highly entertaining novel following three generations of Singers during Jess´s first year in The Show, Eric Goodman imagines what life might be like for a gay baseball player. Will Jess live in a confined closet or do what no baseball player has done yet? Goodman charts Jess´s path with tremendous sensitivity and grace, while detailing a season as riveting as watching your favorite underdog take their shot at the golden ring.

Written with Goodman´s usual flair, humor, and zing--not to mention his deep knowledge and love of baseball--Curveball is a feel-good love story in which virtue and a wicked curve triumph over considerable adversity.
