Synopsis

Seventh grader Ian Shin loves his baseball team -- they're like a family. So when Ian's dad's valuable signed baseball goes missing after a team sleepover, he can't believe it. The culprit could only be the pitcher, Hunter Yates. Not only is he new, but he has a brand new glove at practice the next day. The big game is coming up, but can Ian trust his teammates and work together to bring the team a win?

About this title

About the Author:

Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler - or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps - literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.
