Hal Stevens or better known as Ralph Steven’s son spends his time living in a huge shadow of an all-star third basemen and heavy hitter for the Cardinals. People start to think that Hal gets to start on his baseball team just because of his dad knowing the coach and being famous. People always think about people before they really know who they’re really dealing with and they can be wrong and way off from the real thing.
“It’s not easy being Ralph Stevens” is stated throughout the book and it is a really big quote in the book. A senior on the team especially doesn’t like hall because he beat him out for the job at second base and he made an excuse so that in his own mind he doesn’t have to face that Hal was better than him.
People often think of other people from what is around them and not from the real person and they are really never completely correct. The quote in this book really states that just because his dad is famous doesn’t make his life easy it can actually make it worse.
