Synopsis "the tony conigliaro story"
- A great read also makes a great gift! - - Synopsis - By the time he was five he was a kid with a dream: someday he'd be a baseball player. Gifted with extraordinary skills, a story book romance, rare physical abilities, and Hollywood handsome looks, it appeared Tony had been blessed by the gods. In the midst of this, however, he was beset with the most challenging experience of his life, an event that nearly killed him. Doctors feared he would never see again; fans feared he'd never play again; his family and the love of his life watched in horror, fearing he might never rise again as he lay in the dirt beside home plate, wreathing in agony. This is more than a sports story. This is a human interest story, a love story, a story of triumph, and one of the greatest comeback stories in all of sports history.
