What's Power Pitcher About

Publisher Summary

Jimmie’s selfish move could ruin the whole team…. When Jimmie is elected captain of his baseball team, his first decision is to appoint himself pitcher - much to his teammates’ dismay. They already have a good pitcher, Paul. When Jimmie’s pitches fail to find their mark, his teammates let it be known that they want Paul back on the mound. But even if Jimmie agrees, will Paul be willing to return?
