Publisher Summary

Kim Rollins hasn’t played much baseball, and he is surprised when Coach Stag insists that he join his team, a team the coach believes will win the championship. Kim is even more intrigued when he discovers everyone else on the team is new at the sport. Who is this Coach Stag? And why is he so set on winning the championship - with inexperienced players to boot?
