Indexer Notes

The apparent creases and ragged edges are actually printed features, giving the cover a "distressed" look.

Synopsis
Justin is pitching his first game at Pioneers Field. Thanks to him and catcher Chris, the Pioneers win it in the ninth. The players and the coach are complaining about Chris's smelly uniform, but he won't wash it as long as their winning streak continues. After the game he offers his cap to an excited fan, but even the small boy doesn't want it.
