Sarah sits down with acclaimed author Robert J. Skead to explore his enthralling historical fiction novel, The Batboy and the Unbreakable Record.

Set against the backdrop of 1938, The Batboy and the Unbreakable Record follows the story of 12-year-old Richie Goodwin as he navigates the challenges of adolescence and familial struggles. When Richie lands the coveted position of batboy for the Cincinnati Reds, he is thrust into a world of strict rules and seniority.

But fate offers Richie a second chance, one that will not only test his resilience but also allow him to witness a momentous event in baseball history. As he accompanies the legendary Johnny Vander Meer, Richie is drawn into a world of possibility and perseverance, where the boundaries of achievement are pushed to their limits.
