Bookroo's summary

Smarty Marty loves baseball and is the scorekeeper for her brother Mikey's Little League team. When the announcer doesn't show, Marty steps up to the mic, igniting her passion for announcing. However, not everyone is thrilled about a girl taking on this role. Can Marty overcome the skepticism and prove her talent in a male-dominated field?

From the publisher

Smarty Marty, and her little brother Mikey, are back in the first in a series of illustrated chapter books, about a girl who loves baseball, written by San Francisco Giants in-game reporter Amy Gutierrez. Smarty Marty is the official scorekeeper for her little brother’s Little League team. But when the game announcer fails to show up for the first game, Marty is called to announce the game, inspiring her dream not only to score but to announce. But not everyone is happy about a girl getting to announce a baseball game.
