King's short ghost story features Dean Evers, a retiree who bids New England winters goodbye for a Florida condo. Evers has baseball in his blood, and while tuning in to the games, he begins to see long-dead people from his past sitting in the stands—and they're saving him a seat. The story generates eerie suspense while moving briskly, and actor Craig Wasson handles the pacing and voices beautifully. After this story, you'll never answer the phone while watching a ball game again. At roughly an hour, this can be digested in a single sitting, and the price is sweet. (LJ 9/15/12)
