(4) 1-3 Topps® League Story series. Illustrated by Eric Wight. Batboy Chad's baseball cards help calm his teammate so he can pitch a perfect game (Zip It!) and satisfy a grumpy fan who's been asked to return Teddy "the Bear" Larrabee's birthday home-run ball (823rd). They're insubstantial, but these chapter books, filled with stats and minor league action, offer baseball fans quick and easy reads. Review covers these Topps® League titles: Zip It! and The 823rd Hit.
