The Right Call by Tommy Greenwald
Cal is a talented pitcher - so talented that he has scouts from colleges that are interested in him and that can mean a lot of pressure - pressure on him and it turns out, on his parents. Cal just wants to focus on playing the best ball he can, but soon forces outside of his control begin to spiral in ways no one could have imagined.
Recommended for grades 7 and up.
