Matt Baker is short, super short. He also struggles to get his words out sometimes. He stutters. Matt loves baseball, the skills and the strategy of the game.
Ben Roberson is huge, like a giant compared to his team. When Ben gets a hold of a ball, it is out of the park, at least when he doesn’t strike out. Ben’s dad is pressuring him to make that big play.
In baseball height doesn’t matter, and the big hit doesn’t always win the game. Can these two players learn from each other and together help make their team great?
