Robbie has been waiting for baseball season to begin for months. He is stunned when he finds out that his friend forgot to turn in their applications, and they haven't been placed on a team.

Their team is allowed to play in the league, but when Robbie's cousin doesn't appear, his whole team might be dissolved. Can this last-minute team stay together for the season? Do they have any chance at winning? Find out how the Scrappers began in this first book in the series about the team.
