Title: The Home-Run King: Scraps of Time 1937
Author: Patricia C. McKissack
Genre: Historical fiction (children's)
The book is about baseball in the year 1937. The main 2 characters are boys who like baseball. They sneak into the baseball stadium to watch all the games because they really like the pitcher. They were doing quite well with that until one day they both got caught but one of them got away. Their favorite catcher was staying in their house so they got help from a professional baseball player and after that they made their own team.
