Now that twelve-year-old Anya is old enough to join her fourteen-year-old sister Marina on the fast-pitch softball team, things are becoming tense between them. Anya has trouble catching her sister's pitches and resents Marina's criticism and being moved to the outfield, and Marina is increasingly obsessed with her role as captain and angry because Anya does not seem to take the game as seriously as she does. With an important game coming up the sisters are going to have to work out their differences if their team is going to win.

Autorenporträt
Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler - or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps - literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.
