Bookroo's summary
Malcolm, the star first-baseman, is confident this season will be his best yet. But when a former benchwarmer steps up, Malcolm's position is suddenly at risk. As he navigates the unexpected rivalry, Malcolm must learn to adapt and put the team first. Will he rise to the challenge or let his ego get in the way? The stakes are high, and the game is on.
From the publisher
Baseball has always been Malcolm’s best sport, and he’s sure this season will be no different. After all, there’s no real competition when you’re the best. But when a former benchwarmer makes a play for his position, Malcolm realizes that earning his spot on the baseball team won’t be as easy as he expected.
