Ted has always been a star on the field...now he's riding the bench.

When the Kansas City Royals draft Ted Bell right out of high school, he expects to be out on the field, playing third base, hitting home runs, and winning games. Yet far from being the overnight sensation he hoped, the only action the cocky newcomer sees is from the dugout, watching the Royal's veteran third baseman, Lou Mills, play the best ball of his career.

Mills has no intention of losing his job to the hotshot rookie, but Ted finally gets his turn at bat when an injury temporarily sidelines Mills. But will Ted have enough time to win the starting spot before Mills returns?
