Extra Innings is a companion short story series to Swing for the Fences, told in close third person and designed to step outside Nick’s first-person view.

By uncovering the inner lives and quiet choices of the surrounding characters, Extra Innings deepens and expands the world of Swing for the Fences beyond what was ever visible on the surface.
