The Boston
Red Sox haven't won the World Series since 1918. Zachary Develin,
an up-and-coming catcher and hitter, may change all that...but first
he's got to survive his first game in Fenway Park. Someone is sending
notes to the Sox's general manager, proclaiming in broken verse
that if Develin plays in the annual Cape League exhibition game,
he will be killed. Luckily for Zack, Captain Underhill is a big
baseball fan, and he'll go to any lengths to protect the kid...including
suiting up for the game himself.
Counting House
is an intriguing 'baseball murder mystery' wherein Captain Underhill
not only saves a young ball player's life, but 'reverses the Curse'
by removing 'The Curse of the Bambino' from the Red Sox. This program
was produced with the full cooperation of the Boston Red Sox, and
features the real Fenway Park, the real Fenway organ, and such notables
as former and current Red Sox radio announcers, Ken
Coleman, and Joe Castiglione.
The late Ken Coleman
was a broadcast announcer whose career spaned many decades and included
broadcasting Ohio State football games, the Clevelan Indians, the
Cleveland Browns, the Boston Red Sox, and many more. He was the
author of many sports books and on radio was well known for a variety
spot called "Ken's Corner". He was a gentleman and a person greatly
to be missed.
