In the beginning of the book Sweet was a man that was called a floater because he never stayed in one place. on page 49 of the book Ballard writes "Sweet was very disliked in the community and was called a "floater" and a "radical" by many people. They had never experienced a man that slept on a new persons couch every night."When the second baseball season comes around Sweet begins to change. He began to date a woman by the name of Barb Jesse. After Sweet married Jesse they bought a trailer home. This changed sweets image in the community and also the lifestyle he led. Sweet was a radical man with ideas that nobody had ever thought of. Sweet began to be "normal" by the standards of the community after he married Jesse.
