ABOUT YOUR GAME
YOU are a baseball player with a history of practicing hard, playing hard, and making smart choices. You’re known for your keen instincts and coming up big in tough situations. Your teammates look up to you, and your coach relies on you. But there’s just one thing on your mind—can you lead your team to the tournament championship?
Chapter One sets the scene. Then you choose which path to read. Follow the links at the bottom of each page as you read the stories. The decisions you make will change your outcome. After you finish one path, go back and read the others for new perspectives and more adventures. Use your device's back buttons or page navigation to jump back to your last choice.
CHAPTER 1
A COMEBACK SEASON
This baseball season has been a wild ride. Your team, the Rockets, started off slow. One of your best hitters missed the first couple of weeks with a sprained ankle and came back rusty. Everyone played as hard as ever, but the hits weren’t dropping in and the pitching was cold. You went 4–6 through the first 10 games, and then you lost a heartbreaker to your biggest rival, the Railroaders, in extra innings. You were in fourth place and in danger of missing the Tri-City Tournament, the biggest event of the season.
Many of your teammates were feeling down after that Railroaders game. Even Coach Kowalski said, Maybe this isn’t our year.
Coach calls you the Bus
because you have a motormouth—and because sometimes you carry the whole team. You knew you had to say something to encourage your team members to keep trying.
Come on, guys!
you pleaded. Don’t give up now. We’re about to get hot—I can feel it!
Some of the guys nodded. But you could tell they weren’t so sure.
Attitudes began to change when you won your next game. The game after that was an extra innings nail-biter, but this time your team came out on top. You followed that with another win. In fact, the Rockets reeled off five victories in a row and took 12 of the last 16 games.
The Tri-City Tournament is right around the corner, and you’ve made it in. After digging out of that early-season hole, the team believes anything is possible. But one thing is for sure—the Rockets can’t afford another slump. That means you’ll have to step up your game even more.
It’s time to play ball!
To be a slick-fielding shortstop, using your highlight-reel defense to impact the game, press here.
To be a crafty pitcher, enduring high-stress pressure on the mound, press here.
To be a wise-but-tough catcher, managing the pitching game and hitting for power, press here.
CHAPTER 2
FLASHING THE LEATHER
Power hitters get the glory. Pitchers get the spotlight. But no team can be great without great defense. And no defensive position is more important than shortstop. That’s where hard grounders come the hardest. That’s where tough hops are the toughest. Where smoking line drives are the hottest.
That’s where you play. Shortstop for the Rockets—it’s where hits go to die, and everyone knows it.
