I am reading the baseball sports book called "The BatBoy" by Mike Lupica. So far in the book, the main character Brian is a fourteen year old teen who loves to play the sport of baseball. His little league season just ended and he cannot wait to get back on the field. That was until he got a call from the major league team of the Detroit Tigers. The tigers wanted Brian to be a part of the tigers organization by being the batboy. Brian was excited because he would be able to sit right next to his famous baseball idols, and because this would be a chance to win his father back who before left Brian and his mom because of baseball.
Now Brian sees this as a big opportunity for himself and the family, and understands how important this job is. So while he is doing his best to keep up the good work at school to be a batboy, and helping his mom around the house, he is still upset to tell himself that he is Cole Dudley's son. But he is going to try and get his father back. And the only way to do that is by continuing to be a batboy. Even if that means leaving his mother to go with the team on their far road trips.
