Summary

Join Sully, a remarkable teenager who refuses to let his disability define him, as he embarks on a mission to honor his twin brother's memory and make history on the baseball field. 
"Southpaw Sully is irresistible. It's funny, smart, and ultimately wise—about baseball and about life."—Mick Cochrane, author of THE GIRL WHO THREW BUTTERFLIES, a Booklist Top 10 Sports Book for Youth 
_________________________________ 
Fourteen-year-old Sully is determined to learn how to pitch as a right-hand amputee. Struggling to adjust to life after the accident that took his own hand and his twin brother's life, Sully seeks to realize the big dream he and his bro once shared: to bring home a first-ever championship for their town in an annual baseball tournament. 
As Sully leads his team on an exciting Cinderella run in the tourney, a bully from a rival team will stop at nothing to ensure there's no fairytale ending. When a distressing situation unfolds, Sully must choose between the game he loves and being there for his family. 
_________________________________ 
BONUS: Enjoy a foreword written by Jim Abbott, a famed former Major League Baseball pitcher who never let his birth defect of having only one hand stop him from pursuing his dreams.
