  • Summary Of Right Down The Middle By Ralph Terry

    1562 Words  | 7 Pages

    Have fun. While Ralph hit the lowest of lows in Game 7 of the 1960 World Series he learned how to take every experience in life and implement it later down the road as he did so distinctly in 1962. Throughout the book Ralph exudes a hardworking, persevering, and humble attitude as he goes from growing up on the dirt fields in Oklahoma to the best of stages in Yankee Stadium. While yes, this book highlights the 50’s and 60’s, I believe this book should be shown to all children and aspiring athletes and more particular baseball players. This book shows that no matter where you grow up, what you grow up with, and who you grow up with if you work hard enough and put in your all you will get out the results you are working for.
