(3) 4-6 This stand-alone sequel to Chief Sunrise, John McGraw, and Me combines baseball history and fictional characters to good effect. Hank, sixteen, works for the New York Giants during Babe Ruth's first season with the Yankees. The two teams share a ball field, and this gives Tocher the opportunity to contrast the personalities of the disciplined Giants manager, John McGraw, with the freewheeling Bambino.
