Author Lenny Levine will be our guest as we discuss his murder mystery novel Diehard Fan, set during the final week of the 1951 season and the historic comeback by the New York Giants. The book tells the story of a boy who tries to figure out who is killing Giants fans in Brooklyn, while weaving the games at Ebbets Field and the Polo Grounds into the plot.

And we'll unpack the history and the ins-and-outs of The Slider, found in chapter one of Tyler Kepner's Book K: A History of Baseball in Ten Pitches.
