I loved getting to know a couple of the girls well and enjoyed seeing them compete with several mostly-white teams. Shenice also has a great group of girlfriends and the team has a friendly dynamic. The family has a long history of playing sports and they’re understandably proud of Shenice’s love for the game. Shenice’s father is disabled after a game injury and he has to move around with a cane. ![]() Like Clean Getaway, this is a fast-paced story and Shenice is sharp girl who excels at her sport and takes her role as captain seriously. And now, Shenice is the only one who can clear his name. Shenice and her team are preparing to win the Fastpitch World Series, when she discovers that a crime her great-grand father was accused of - which cost him his reputation and place in the Negro leagues - may have actually been a set-up all along. Summary: Fast Pitchįast Pitch is a companion title to Nic Stone’s Clean Getaway, which I really enjoyed! It stars Scoob’s crush Shenice, an U12 softball team captain whose concentration is shot when she stumbles upon a decades-long family mystery. ![]() Penguin Random House is giving away a copy of Nic Stone’s Fast Pitch to one reader. ![]()
