Short story book; one story about Astros mascot; please read comment for more details

[Hel]

A short story book i think by a male author. I was looking for one short story in particular, it was about the Houston Astros mascot basically being a real alien under the costume and I think eating people?The main character was a young boy I believed and it probably took place in Houston. It was a long time ago but I really want to find this book.

Helen, what's the genre (which we need to add to the header/ topic title) - e.g., short story collection for kids, teens or adults? science fiction, fantasy, horror, humor, etc.?

Around what year did you read this collection of story stories?

Try adding more plot details to the header/ topic title "Short story..." You can copy from what you've already written in the first comment. Someone is more likely to recognize your book. If you would like help with this, just post a new comment.
