The Perfect Pitch is the biography of Roger Owens, the famous Peanut Man at Dodger Stadium. It is the true life story of the poor boy turned Peanut Man who has enchanted fans at Dodger Stadium for well over four decades. It is truly an inspiring story about Roger Owens, who grew up in an extremely poor family as the eldest of nine children and son of a Baptist minister, living on the tough inner city streets of Los Angeles.

It is a remarkable human interest story with a baseball backdrop, yet it can be enjoyed by both men and women, people of all ages, and sports fans or not. It covers the amazing life of the Peanut Man, the many miracles he and his family faced, and his rise from lowly soda vendor to premier peanut man, known for his trick peanut tossing and his career launching appearance as a guest of the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.

Starting out at the Coliseum when the Dodgers moved West, Roger found it was a great way to bring in desperately needed income for his poor family. Over the years, he has become one of baseball's most genuine heroes, not to mention a hero for every day working people.
