The+Boy+Who+Saved+Baseball

This book is about a boy named Cruz, who went to a town baseball camp to help save the heritage of baseball. The team had to win a game to stop bulldozers from coming in nd taking over, and turning the town all upside down. Cruz thought that if they could get a famous baseball player to come help their camp then they might have a chance of winning. Del Gato a MLB player was the hero of the towns fait. Cruz also helped by introducing the players to a HitSim. This video game helped the players learn to read every pitch. Once Cruz had left the team with no warning Tom, his friend and coaches son was The “actual” Boy Who Saved Baseball. I would give this book 4.5 stars. At first I thought this was just a guy type book, but there is more to the story than just baseball. I liked this book because it always kept me going. As I was reading I would always try to predict what was going to happen next, or what I wanted to happen next. That led me to keep on reading. Even though the town was saved there were many hardships and road blocks in the way.

Some characters in the novel The Boy Who Saved Baseball is Tom Gallegher, who is the main character in the book. There is also Cruz de la Cruz who is a mysterious boy that came to Dillontown to help the team with the big game. The book mostly takes place in Dillontown which is in the desert in the southwest, around New Mexico or Arizona. The main conflict of the book, which is also the main plot, is game game they have to play and beat their tough near-bye rival or their historical Lucky Strike Field will be destroyed by developers. The field is important to them because it is where famous baseball star Dante del Gato grew up and played baseball on as a kid. If I was to rate this book on a scale of stars, five being the best, I would give it four stars. I would give it four because it was an interesting book, but it did have that much baseball in it just at the end when they played the game.

The Boy Who Saved Baseball

The boy who saved baseball was a great book if you like baseball. I like the sport so it wasnt that bad. This book isnt all about baseball. They have some different meaning too. LIke if you can believe in yourself then you will be able to do what ever you want. Its a team of ball players who want to win so they will beable to keep the feild. A new kid shows up and then lets the team down. Someone has to pass on too.


 * I pick three stars because the book is kind of boring.
