Topps league story

Chad is thrilled to be a batboy for the Pine City Porcupines, even though the team is not doing well, his fellow batboy is less than thrilled about the job, and his favorite player seems to be jinxed.

To keep Teddy "Bear" Larrabee happy and slugging, Chad the bat boy has to figure out what a crabby fan would be willing to trade for Teddy's lucky homerun ball.

When Pine City Porcupines' batboy Chad breaks an important unofficial rule of baseball: Do not talk to the starting pitcher when he has a perfect game going, the team may lose the game unless Chad can find a baseball card to help break the superstition.

Chad is upset when his parents begin wanting him to come home before midnight and eat healthier; meanwhile, Abby has bobblehead issues and pinch hitter Sammy Solaris has trouble with speed. With the help of Dylan, a baseball card, and a porcupine, Chad tries to save the summer.
