Game Changers Book 3: Heavy Hitters
The Core Four return in this Little League addition to Lupica’s Game Changers series. Ben McBain and his friends are determined to prove the Rockwell Rams are the best team in the summer league, but right off the bat, they are pitted against obstacles bigger than their opponents on the field. An injury throws off Ben’s game, and the usually unflappable Justin is moody and playing worse than ever. Friendship and family are at the forefront of this story, which is nonetheless packed with sports lingo and exciting play-by-plays that are guaranteed to hit home with baseball fans.
