Consider the veteran players on the squad. Jim Eisenreich, who suffers from Tourrette's syndrome, is one of baseball's premier hitters and works with many children around the nation who are also afflicted with Tourrette's. Darren Daulton, a 13-year veteran of the Philadelphia Phillies, was acquired in mid-season to add some punch from the left side of the plate to a lineup lacking in left-handed hitters. Both of these players now have the opportunity to win their first championship...
...pull, and so were Ken Griffey Jr., Matt Williams and Ozzie Smith, All-Stars whose disabling injuries have further diminished the game this year. "For the fans to punch my name out, I had to be here," said Griffey. Not every player is as sentimental about the game.

Nice young men from good families, Chris Boyce and Daulton Lee had known each other since their days as altar boys in a decorous Los Angeles suburb. At 21, Chris, an expert falconer, got a job at TRW, the aerospace and electronics behemoth.

By this time Daulton was an important man in his own right, in his own eyes: he had established...

The Soviet embassy in Mexico City is alive with swarthy-suave, worldly-wise apparatchiks (led by David Suchet), alternately amused and baffled by the bravado of Daulton (Sean Penn), a kid who has always had his way and cannot be intimidated by any old nuclear power. "O.K.," he barks when they cross him, "from now on I do my business with the Chinese!" Sporting a cad's mustache and Walter Denton's whiny voice, Penn is a funny, harrowing wonder of energy...
...bank robber and fisherman, for 19 months before his capture. To many of those he met then, he is still a friend, and maybe a hero. That story could make for a sequel--The Falcon Strikes Back, perhaps?--superior to the original movie. The early careers of Chris and Daulton prove that truth is stranger, and more thrilling, than docu-drama...
