Description
Jalen DeLuca loves baseball, but his dad's diner can't afford to keep him on the travel team. So Jalen comes up with a plan to help his favorite player out of a slump by stealing balls from the star second baseman's batting cage and selling them. However, things don't go as planned when the player catches him. But Jalen has a secret: he's incredibly good at predicting baseball pitches. He can analyze and predict almost exactly what a pitcher is going to do with his next pitch. After proving it to the player, they agree on a deal - Jalen will help the player out of his slump in exchange for not pressing charges. As Jalen works with the player, he begins to suspect that there's more to the team's general manager's intentions than meets the eye. With his unusual baseball talent and some help from friends, Jalen must use his skills to save both the player's career and his own good name.
