Dugout Rivals, Paperback

Jake Daley loves baseball. He loves playing for the Red Sox in the Woodside baseball league. He loves playing short stop. Most of all, he loves to win.

Jake is excited when newcomer Adam Hull is selected to play for the Red Sox. Adam can do it all--pitch, hit, and field. But as the Red Sox rack up win after win, and Adam's talents dominate every game, Jake can't help but wonder: Do he or the other players even matter? When Jake's father tells him the story of Babe Ruth and the 1927 Yankees, though, Jake sees how even the best players must rely on their teammates.

Author Fred Bowen continues his Sports Story series with play-by-play action that's sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats! An afterword provides the real story of the 1927 Yankees, the group that many have called "The Greatest Team of All Time."
