Jalen DeLuca applies his baseball genius to his own playing in the follow-up to Tim Green and Derek Jeterโs New York Times bestselling novel Baseball Genius.
Jalen DeLuca loves baseball. But heโs more than just a fan and a talented player; Jalen is a baseball genius.

Now turning his focus to his own baseball career, Jalen has to put his genius into action in new and untested ways. But without the stats and information he has on the pro players, analyzing the pitchers seems impossible. And even if he knows what the pitch will be, actually hitting it takes more than intuition.
As if the pressure of the team and drama with his friends werenโt enough, one major event changes everythingโJalenโs mom comes back into his life. Can Jalen work through it all to hit a grand slam and make his baseball dreams a reality?
