Summary CHARLIE O'BRIEN led National League catchers in caught-stealing percentage in 1990, with a score of 45.7 percent, and three times he led the league in outs and assists by catchers. His clutch hitting contributed to a National League Championship and subsequent World Series Championship for the Atlanta Braves in 1995. He is retired from baseball and lives in Oklahoma. DOUG WEDGE is an attorney and freelance writer based in Alabama. His short story, "What Are You Doing?" was a winner of the 2008 South Carolina Arts Commission's Short Fiction Contest
