Overwhelming Underdogs Book Series Book 1: Outside the Lines @Baseballbook

By The Laymans

Overwhelming Underdogs is a baseball themed, multicultural historical fiction book series for kids. The modern day story is about an eleven year old boy named Sam who has an unwavering admiration for his best friend Evan yet little confidence in himself. Sam obsessively worries that he has no noteworthy talents until he's forced to focus his time instead on keeping a promise to his best friend Evan. When Sam befriends a tough new kid who seemingly isn't afraid of anything and an older neighbor who shares his own past baseball struggles with him, he starts to discover that he has a boundless gift of his own. The second story centers around an underprivileged group of teenagers who agree only on one thing; that their future is bleak and there's absolutely nothing that they can do about it. When a softhearted coach attempts to persuade his egotistical son to help him teach the sourly group of teenagers to play organized baseball, surprising events occur that change the directions of their lives forever.
