☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Iron Vic" by Bernard Dibble follows a baseball player who helps the pennant-winning Panthers overcome a five-game deficit behind the league-leading Bruins in a crucial series. When a mysterious new player with questionable origins appears on the Panthers' roster, Iron Vic's sudden offensive heroics—including a key two-out hit in a tied ninth-inning game—raise suspicions among his teammates and a veteran baseball writer about the legitimacy of his performance. As the Panthers continue their improbable comeback, the story explores the tension between Vic's undeniable contributions to the team's success and the growing questions about whether he truly belongs in the game.
Iron Vic takes five paroled kids from a tough neighborhood under his wing, hoping to steer them away from the hoodlums and petty criminals who've become their only role models. Over a series of outings—from the amusement park to the neighborhood streets to the beach—Vic proves himself a man of principle and skill, earning their respect through example rather than authority, all while the dangerous elements of their world close in.
