In "A Nice Tuesday," Pat Jordan chronicles his decision to reclaim
the failed potential of his youth. A young baseball pitcher of
inordinate promise, Jordan had been one of the Milwaukee Braves
first "bonus babies." His struggle through the minor leagues and
ultimate failure to play in the majors, eloquently chronicled in A
False Spring, defined his youth. At fifty-six, Jordan realizes that
"this trivial thing" has also defined his life and decides to make
a comeback. He whips himself back into playing condition and
convinces an independent minor-league team, the Waterbury
(Connecticut) Spirit, to let him return to the mound one last time.
In this memoir, Jordan lays bare his midlife quest with honesty and
humor, making "A Nice Tuesday" about much more than baseball.
