In a short story collection of Musgrave’s caliber, the dilemma becomes which tale to review from The Mayan Magician and Other Stories. With “The Mayan Magician,” this compilation’s lead story and namesake, Musgrave weaves a mystical tale of love, courage and resolute faith in the great Mayan Warrior God, Kukulkán. Musgrave’s story revolves around a contemporary young Mayan woman, Isabel Velasquez, or “Dipsie Izzie,” as she wows baseball fans and wins over male colleagues and skeptics with her almost-supernatural knuckleball. She becomes the first female pitcher for the minor league Yucatán Leones — and later, the first woman awarded a major league contract, signing with the San Diego Padres. A million-dollar contract, no less.
