In 1931, the biggest major league baseball stars were Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. They both played for the New York Yankees. Seventeen-year-old Jackie Mitchell can't believe it when she learns the team is coming to her hometown for an exhibition game. She's a pitcher on her team, the Lookouts, and she'll get the chance to go head-to-head with the Yankee sluggers. Can she strike them out?
