  When Luis joins his new baseball team, the Manatees, things seem hopeless at 
  first. Some of his new teammates— including “loud and obnoxious” home-run 
  slugger Jimmie—are mean to him or to each other. His new coach doesn’t tell the 
  players everything to do like his old coach did. And some of the Manatees seem 
  more interested in goofing off than in working hard. Then Coach Joe makes Luis 
  team captain. Will Luis rise to the challenge? Can he get the Manatees to balance 
  working hard and having fun? Will he help his teammates learn to be friends rather 
  than compete? 
  Baseball Buddies explores the power of working together, what it takes to build a 
  team, and the lasting friendships that form on the baseball field.
