"Lupica offers another heartwarming, action-packed, sports-savvy novel." ( School Library Journal)

The final game

This was so good and so sigma. It also was one of the best I have listened to and it will be sigma

Great book to listen to with my 8 year old

This was a book my 8 year old and I enjoyed together. I would think that this book would typically of interest to older kids and adults who enjoy baseball. My right year old is obsessed with sports and was completely absorbed. Very glad I purchased. Naration was great.

never a dull moment

loved the book. Seemed to always have a educated moment. Liked how evry chapter brought a new struggle or indifference to the plate.

My kids were hooked!

We love this book. So relatable for my middle infielder living in south Florida! This was our first audiobook too and we couldn’t wait to get in the car and find out what happened next.

what a sham

the narrating of this book was really good. very clear voice and made that book exciting, however I can't stand the message that this book was trying to get across. the father and son never hashed out the problems they were having and it felt like the dad cared more about another kid on the field then his own son. the mom was just playing peace maker between the father and son. I wish it would have had more heart to heart between the father and son. It felt like the son just had to realize that his dad just showing up to the game is the best he will ever get. why didn't the dad give him any pointers on how to play baseball. not once in this book did the father ever acknowledge his son's feeling and try to make an effort to make things right. this is just a terrible book all around.
