Mike Lupica: The Big Field

I am reading the book, "The Big Field" and so far I have learned that Hutches Life has changed. He is a base ball player that has just moved to a new team called the Post 226 Cardinals.  Hutch Plays short stop and it turns out that when he went to this new team they already had one. His name is Daryl and he is projected to become a pro player when he grows up. There was a problem with this thou,  his father was a professional baseball player and he had to quit because he was not quiet "fit" for this kind of ball game. The problem with this is that Hutch is a baseball player and his dad well dislikes the sport.  His dads perspective is that the sport wont get his son anywhere in life just like what happened to him. This is what I have found out so far keep reading for the whole book.

In my opinion the book is in 3rd person point of view.  I think of this because there are parts were the character reads "He" "She" "They" "Is" etc. For example this sentence tells me the POV isn't 1st. "He and Hutch did not say a word to each other since they talked before infield." Here the narrator says "he" and then says "Hutch" I knew from there it was not 1st person because Hutch wouldn't say his name when he was talking like that. He would have referred to it as "Me" or "I". This is why I think its a 3rd person POV.
