Good Time Charlie

Good Time Charlie - an inspirational story of baseball, romance,
and redemption.
Charlie Pace was the first overall pick of the Professional Baseball draft the year he
graduated from high school. Charlie later pitched in the majors for three years,
making the All-Star team twice during those three seasons. He had the best fastball in
the major leagues and his jersey sales were among the top selling jerseys in all
professional sports. He was voted the league's Most Outstanding Player his third
season in the majors.
After his third season he underwent surgery on his right elbow, due to complications
from the surgery, for the next two years he could not pitch at all. Once his arm healed
the velocity on his fastball never completely returned.
For the past seven seasons Charlie has been a player/coach in the minor leagues with
the Myrtle Beach Seahawks. Charlie has pitched well during his years in Myrtle Beach,
but the loss of velocity on his fastball has kept him from returning to the top of the
game. At times he has shown the ability to pitch at the major league level again, but
not consistently.
His story is somewhat of a mystery.
