All is forgiven, Stephen King: "The hapless Devil Rays will be more hapless still if Ivan, third and worst hurricane to menace Florida in the last thirty days, blows away their JuiceDome down there in Tampa; like a certain unlucky Jew, they may be doomed to simply wander, dragging their dusty equipment bags behind them, playing everywhere and always batting in the top of the first. 'We once had a home,' they'll tell those who will listen. 'It wasn't very full, and most of the folks who showed up were old, many equipped with shunts and pee bags, but by God it was ours.'"

At the end of the book, it's fairly obvious that the day after the Sox won the World Series, the publisher was screaming at Stephen King and Stewart O'Nan on the phone: "Just get us the manuscript now so we can get the book out before Christmas!"
