The Outfielders
by Robert P. RoweSometimes love can come out of left field. Tony was waiting until he went away to college to come out to his parents and start his new gay life. Unfortunately, at twenty-four, it doesn't look like college is going to happen after all. Stuck in a dead-end job in a small town and still living at home, with all the arrested development that entails, he finds escape in playing for the company baseball team and lusting after his straight outfielder crush, Alex. But Tony's best friend, Jennifer, thinks she's found a plan in the pages of gay romance novels. All Tony has to do is convince Alex he's gay for you... or for Tony. It's easy--just find some excuse to be alone in bed together and let nature take its course. What could possibly go wrong? You can't get to first base if you don't take a chance and step up to the plate.
