Anotace knihy

On April 26, 2014, twenty-seven-year-old Clint Seymour was walking to his car with friends, enjoying the balmy spring night in Charleston, South Carolina, when suddenly, senselessly he was hit by what police termed a "sucker punch," a running blow to the back of his head that he never saw coming, from an assailant he didn't know and had done nothing to provoke. As quickly as the ambush erupted, so it ceased with his assailant disappearing into the night, leaving Clint lifeless on the sidewalk. In Untouchable: Reflections on Twenty-Seven Unforgettable Years With Clint, Don Seymour, Clint's father, attempts to make sense of the senseless and do everything in his power to "turn tragedy into triumph." With emotionally powerful prose that knits together poignant anecdotes, bittersweet humor, and wisdom drawn from baseball's life lessons Clint and his father shared, Seymour sets out to fulfill the promises whispered into the ear of his non-responsive son on their last day together-to tell the story of Clint's charismatic and joyful personality and the galvanizing and positive effect it had on so many, and to assure that Clint's spirit lives on through a charitable fund to support youth baseball (The Clint Seymour "Play Ball" Fund), in recognition of the sport that was intertwined with his young life and that had fostered character traits in adulthood that served Clint so well. All net proceeds from the sale of Untouchable will be donated to The Clint Seymour "Play Ball" Fund (clintplayball.com).
