(4) 4-6 This sequel to Baseball Great revolves around Josh's nascent romance with Jaden--jeopardized when she starts dating a handsome baseball superstar from California--and the exposition of a corrupt umpire. Rivals is less compelling than its predecessor due to some cartoonish characters and implausible plot elements, but fans of light sports fiction will be appeased.
