Along the way, he faces numerous challenges, including a rival pitcher who will stop at nothing to win, and a personal tragedy that threatens to derail his career. ''The Young Pitcher'' is a classic coming-of-age tale that explores the themes of perseverance, friendship, and the pursuit of one’s dreams.1911. Illustrated. One of Zane Grey’s Ken Ward series of books for boys. Millions of readers have hailed Zane Grey as a writer of Western stories but, strange to say, few of them know that he was once a college and professional baseball player.
